From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Churwell is a small village in West Yorkshire, United Kingdom between the edge of Leeds and Morley.

It is 5km (3 miles) south west of Leeds City Centre and 2km (1.5 m) away from the Leeds United Elland Road Football Ground.

Churwell is centred around "Churwell Hill" which is made up of two roads - Elland Road and Victoria Road. The road changes name roughly three quarters of the way up.

The middle of Churwell village has 3 pubs. They are known locally as the top, middle and bottom 'ole (hole).

  • "Bottom 'ole" The New Inn.
  • "Middle 'ole" The Old Golden Fleece.
  • "Top 'ole" The Commercial Inn.

Churwell once had a town hall. The building still exists but has since been converted into the community centre.
