In this video we will take a walk around Leeds Dock. In my opinion one of the beautiful places in Leeds.
We have peace and quiet here, beautiful places to relax, the Royal Armory Museum, an amazing free museum offering a lot for families.
Leeds Dock is definitely a great place to unwind. Atmospheric restaurants, beautiful modern buildings, great atmosphere of the docks - that's all we have here at Dock Leeds.

I invite you for a walk together :)

History
The dock was constructed for boats using the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and the Aire and Calder Navigation to tranship goods and commodities from Leeds city centre in 1843. It was primarily used to bring coal from collieries around Rothwell and Wakefield to supply heavy industries in Hunslet and business and commerce in Leeds city centre.

The western side of the dock once had a large crane on tracks along the side of the dock to load and unload goods from canal barges. In the 1990s the surrounding area was made up of Victorian industrial buildings most of which were derelict. Throughout the second half of the 20th century the area suffered steady industrial decline. The mills and many heavy engineering works began to close, move further out of town or scale down.

Construction of the £42.5 million purpose-built Royal Armouries Museum marked the start of the area's redevelopment which opened in March 1996.No further development was made until 2004 when a multi-storey car park opened followed by an Express hotel in August 2006.The retail and leisure sector was launched on 11 October 2008 with fashion shows from celebrity fashion consultant and TV presenter Gok Wan.[6] However few retail chains were attracted to the area and the site failed to take off as a shopping centre.

The site, which had been known as Clarence Dock, became New Dock in mid-2012 as part of a re-branding initiative. The site was bought by Allied London, and rebranded as Leeds Dock in 2013.
