About Adel:

Adel is a wealthy suburb in North Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. It is situated between Cookridge, Holt Park, Weetwood and Alwoodley. To the north are the villages of Arthington and Bramhope and the market town of Otley.

Adel is situated near the site of a Roman fort, the ancient road from Tadcaster to Ilkley passing nearby.  The Roman name for the area was Burgodunum. It is probable that a Saxon village sprang up around the fort and that a church would have been built within the village. It is mentioned in the 1086 Domesday Book as Adele. Another spelling used until 1816 is Addle.
 

Adel is a mainly residential area of Leeds, and being in proximity to Adel Crags and Meanwood Park has a distinctive countryside feel. Adel also has two primary schools, namely St John The Baptist Primary School and Adel Primary School.

Adel is within the Adel and Wharfedale ward for Leeds City Council and the Leeds North West parliamentary constituency.

Close to Adel Church is York Gate, an old farmhouse with a beautifully landscaped garden and a pavement maze in the driveway. The gardens are open to the public on regular occasions.

Also close to the church is the Adel Memorial Hall and the associated sports ground. The hall was opened on 14 November 1928 as a memorial to those killed in WW1. The engraved 20 ton stone outside the hall was moved from Adel Moor in May 1922 and erected on the site of the then future hall. The hall is home to the Bowmen of Adel, who hosted the Scorton Arrow in 1962, 1967 and 1970. Adel is home to Headingley Golf club, the oldest golf club in Leeds.
