Leeds Library, the oldest surviving subscription library in the UK, is located on this street. [3] [4] The street runs west from Briggate to Albion Street, continuing to the east as Kirkgate, and to the west as Bond Street. It has junctions on its north side with Lands Lane, and on the south side with Bank Street and Marcelo Bielsa Way.
The branch library was established by the Leeds library system to serve the expanding local community. According to historical maps, the site was empty land in 1893, next to a railway depot. In 1908 the future site of the library was still vacant, although unlabelled industrial buildings had been built to the north.
It now has a large Sainsbury's, a Homebase, several other retailers, a library and a public house called The Penny Fun. [1] [2] [3] The earlier part of the centre was opened by Mr Arthur Craven (director of library services) on 5 March 1982. [4] [5] By 1985 the library had become the busiest branch library in Leeds.
