Headingley Hall is a residential care home and apartments for older people. Its history may go back 1000 years - the blue plaque on the wall at the right says “The medieval manor house of Headingley almost certainly stood here. The Hall was rebuilt in the 17th Century and 1831-6. Residents included John Killingbeck, Mayor of Leeds 1677, George Hayward, Land Agent of the Earl of Cardigan, and his son George J.W. Hayward, born here 1839, intrepid explorer in Central Asia.”
