Moortown, Leeds
Moortown is a suburb of Leeds, West Yorkshire, England in the LS17 postcode area. It is a civil parish and electoral ward in the north of the city. It is situated between Roundhay and Gledhow on the east and Weetwood on the west, with Chapel Allerton to the south, and Alwoodley to the north. It is essentially synonymous with Moor Allerton,〔Ralph Thoresby (1715) ''Ducatus Leodiensis: or, the topography of the ancient and populous town and parish of Leedes,and parts adjacent in the West Riding of York'', page 135〕〔A ''History of Leeds, compiled from various authors'' (1797) (Leeds) page 57〕 and institutions in the area use either name.〔The Ordnance Survey gives the name Moor Allerton to the southeasternmost part (where Moor Allerton School is), whereas the Moor Allerton shopping Centre, containing Moor Allerton Library, is to the west by the junction of King Lane and the Ring Road (A6120). This is actually on the site of the original village of Moore Allerton.〕〔Likewise Chapeltown and Chapel Allerton〕 Moortown lies in Leeds 17 which was reported to contain the most expensive housing area in Yorkshire and the Humber by The Times.〔

==General description==
The suburb is around the junction of the (north-south) Harrogate Road A61 road and the Leeds Outer Ring Road (A6120) (west-east), at that point called the Moortown Ring Road, and overlooked by a Water Tower. Scott Hall Road (A61) and Harrogate Road lead southwards to Leeds city centre. However, the council ward boundary is the Ring Road, with properties to the north now being in the Alwoodley ward.〔(www.leeds.gov.uk ) Moortown Ward (map)〕 The Church of England parish includes areas north of the Ring Road. A set of woods north and south of the Ring Road and by the water tower are called the ''Moortown Plantation''.〔(Forest of Leeds ) Moortown Plantation〕
It includes small estates of council housing around the junction of King Lane and the Moortown Ring Road.〔(Welcome to Moortown ) Leeds City Council publication.〕
