Hunger Hills, Horsforth, Leeds
The name is said to be derived from a local legend, which tells of a former mine shaft that collapsed, trapping several workers. Their cries for help could be heard but rescuers were unable to reach the men who eventually starved to death, hence, Hunger Hills. The remains of these mine workings can still be found in the wood. Hunger Hills Wood is a mature deciduous woodland belt, increasing its tree area by natural regeneration into formally open land to the west of the site. To the north and the east are open fields, to the west a school and its grounds. The southern edge is bounded by housing. Situated near the summit of a south facing slope, this woodland can be seen for many miles across the city and is a major contributor to the green landscape of the Aire Valley. The woodland is used for informal recreation by a large number of the public and encloses a small stream. This woodland has Common Rights of Access and Public Rights of Way, including part of the “Leeds Country Way”. Pedestrian access is from Lee Lane East, Lee Lane West, Hall Lane, West End Drive and West End Lane, Horsforth.
