Victorian building in Leeds, England

The Leeds Club premises

The **Leeds Club** is a Grade II* [listed](/source/Listed_building) [Victorian](/source/Victorian_architecture) building in [Leeds](/source/Leeds), [West Yorkshire](/source/West_Yorkshire), England.[1] It is situated on [Albion Place](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Albion_Place,_Leeds&action=edit&redlink=1) in the city centre.

Built in 1820 as residences for the son and grandson of [William Hey](/source/William_Hey_(surgeon)), a distinguished [surgeon](/source/Surgeon), the building was converted into the Leeds Club, a place where the city's leaders could meet, in 1849 and given a new facade. Renovations were completed in 2007, and the building is now used for conferences, weddings and Christmas parties.

The [Historic England](/source/Historic_England) listing record describes the building as having "fine and very complete nineteenth century interior decoration" and draws attention to the "very fine" men's lavatory in the basement with "coloured marble sinks with completely original fittings".[1]
