| Farnley and Wortley is one of the larger electoral Wards making up Leeds City Council. It does not have its own shopping centre or High Street and is made up of a number of small Villages' and estates, each with its own separate identity, including the communities of Gamble Hill, the Kirkdales, Farnley and New Farnley, Armley Heights and Lower and Upper Wortley.
Despite being primarily an Inner City area there are at least nine farms in the ward as well as large stretches of open countryside. We also have Western Flatts Park, Wortley Recreation Ground and Farnley Park in the ward. There are 7 primary schools and three High Schools serving the area with children also travelling to other schools in Leeds.
There are also around 20 Public Houses and a number of clubs in and just around our area.
People who live in Farnley and Wortley tend to work in the City Centre, in the large number of small businesses in the area and we also have a high proportion of self-employed people.
Our local MP is John Battle who represents Farnley and Wortley, along with Armley, Bramley and Kirkstall, at Westminster. |
