Yesterday, on a fine a sunny afternoon I took a walk with a party of enthusiasts, something over thirty in total, around Parlington. The “Walk and Talk”, was a Heritage Open Day function, promoted by Leeds Civic Trust, Leeds City Council, along with English Heritage, and like many others around the country was in celebration of some of our great architectural history, enabling people to explore places not normally open to the public. Parlington of course was one of many houses lost during the twentieth century and an air of mystery surrounds the estate, not least the virtually hidden location of the Hall, or the remains of it.
