About Alwoodley:

Alwoodley is a suburb of Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. It is 5 miles (8.0 km) north of Central Leeds and is one of the city's most affluent areas.

Alwoodley is home to a sizeable proportion (around 30%) of the Leeds Jewish community. The area contains one of Leeds' Synagogues, and a well-known Jewish primary school. Alwoodley is a well kept residential suburb, built mostly after World War II. The area has lots of green spaces and golf courses. There are a number of apartment blocks, which are popular with the retired section of the population. Recently a number of large properties have been sold and replaced by luxury flats. This is especially true in the Alwoodley Gates area, and increasingly along Harrogate Road, leading towards Alwoodley Gates. Many retirement flats have been built around North Alwoodley in the past decade. Around Alwoodley Lane and in the Wigton Moor area, the housing generally consists of tree lined avenues (pictured) many stretching for over a mile, surrounded by large double fronted detached housing, usually with around six bedrooms.

The A61 Harrogate Road runs from north to south through the centre of Alwoodley. The area comprises a large part of the postcode LS17, which contains most of North Leeds and the surrounding countryside. On either side of Alwoodley is Adel, to the west, and Shadwell, to the east. There are a number of commuter villages to the north such as East Keswick and Wike.

In Alwoodley there are a number of different areas of housing which are popular with middle and high class families such as the Primley Parks, the Sandmoors, the Plantations, the Turnberrys, the Sunningdales, the Birkdales, the Buckstones and the Wentworths. The residential areas on and around Alwoodley Lane and Wigton Lane are among the most exclusive in Leeds.

The two largest schools in the area are Allerton High School and The Grammar School at Leeds Junior & Senior site. There are also schools nearby in Gledhow and Roundhay.

The area is well known for its selection of golf courses in the immediate vicinity, namely Alwoodley, Moortown and Sandmoor Golf Clubs. Moor Allerton, Scarcroft and Wike Ridge Golf Clubs are situated in within a 3 miles (4.8 km) radius. Moortown Golf Club was also the home of the 1929 Ryder Cup.
