Sugarwell Court has been a part of Leeds Metropolitan University's halls of residence since 1993.

The site used to be known as 'Sugarwell Works' and was historically on old tannery and leather works called 'Cliff Tannery' dating back to 1866. Evidence of the age of the site can be seen in both Airedale and Bishopdale houses, which are comprised of the original architecture, and is a listed building.

Where the general office is currently situated there used to be a huge well, this had to be filled in before development of the site for use as a halls of residence could begin. There is still an ancient basement beneath Bishopdale House, however it has been completely sealed off since 1992.

The archway that forms the main entrance into the courtyard, features sculpted faces and a motif that have been there since the complex was a tannery.

Situated on the Meanwood Road between Meanwood and Leeds City Centre, Sugarwell Court today comprises 388 student bedrooms, a shop, a gym, a launderette and bar.

The student bedrooms make up cluster style flats with five or six rooms sharing a kitchen, shower and toilet. Some bedrooms have en-suite facilities.

There are seven 'houses' on the Sugarwell site that make up the halls of residence, they are each named after Yorkshire Dales, they are: Airedale; Bishopdale; Coverdale; Deepdale; Eskdale; Farndale; Glaisdale.
