About Chapeltown
- The Leeds West Indian Carnival, held annually in Potternewton Park on the August Bank Holiday, is the oldest Caribbean carnival in Europe — predating the Notting Hill Carnival by several years. It was founded in 1967 by Arthur France and attracts over 100,000 visitors each year.
- Chapeltown has been home to a significant Caribbean community since the late 1940s, when workers from the West Indies came to Leeds to work in the textile mills, the NHS, and public transport. The community has shaped the cultural life of Leeds profoundly, contributing to its music, food, and arts scenes.
- Gledhow Valley Woods, on the edge of Chapeltown, is an ancient woodland following the course of Gledhow Beck — a rare surviving fragment of the original woodland that once covered the Leeds basin. The woods are a designated Local Nature Reserve and a popular walking destination.
