Leeds Builds 25 New Council Flats in Farsley | Leeds News

Leeds City Council is set to deliver 25 new council flats in Farsley — the first in that area in over 50 years — on the vacant Richmond House site, targeting those on the Leeds Homes register. Demand for affordable housing in Calverley and Farsley is soaring, with councillors overwhelmed by local need. Originally planned for 33 homes, the scale was reduced after community concerns about traffic and services. Councillor Craig Timmins is now pushing for a broader master plan to manage growth sustainably, while the development aims to be walkable and transport-friendly. Public feedback runs until September 14th — a vital step toward solving a decades-old housing crisis.
