Explore Leeds at your own pace A single ribbon of shimmering water slices through Leeds, its peaceful surface disguising centuries of industrial uproar and whispered deals beneath the canal bridges. This self-guided audio tour plunges beyond the shopfronts and railway arches, promising stories and places few visitors ever notice. What secret crisis nearly sank the Asda empire before a stunning rescue? Which hidden feud led to near fistfights over the canal's route, threatening to tear towns apart? And who started a rock revolution under an unassuming archway at The Cockpit, sparking wild nights that changed music history in Leeds forever? Stride from tranquil towpaths lined with Victorian mills to modern legends of supermarket drama and musical rebellion. Every step uncovers intrigue, invention and scandal-Leeds revealed as a city fuelled by grit, ambition and bold reinvention.
