The Priory, Springfield Mount, Leeds
This is not the oldest building in this part of Leeds, by any means, dating only from 1908-1928. But it was designed by the outstanding architects Temple and Leslie Moore and is grade II* listed (list entry 1256039). It was originally a student hostel (the Priory of St Wilfrid) for members of the Community of the Resurrection at Mirfield who were studying in Leeds, but from 1976 became an adult education centre. It has since returned to its original name and function as student accommodation, though now without the religious emphasis.
