Cottage Road Cinema

Cottage Road Cinema is a movie theater in Headingley that shows both current releases and independent films to audiences throughout the year. The building displays traditional architectural details that create the setting for viewing experiences.

The building originally served as a garage in 1905 before being converted to the Headingley Picture House in 1912. It has since remained one of Britain's longest continuously operating cinemas.

As an independent cinema, the venue programs film selections that go beyond mainstream releases, drawing audiences interested in international cinema and experimental work. The space functions as a community gathering point for people who seek out different kinds of stories on screen.

The cinema can be reached by bus lines 1, 6, 28, or 97 from Leeds city center, and parking is available on Cottage Road nearby. Getting there is straightforward, and visitors will find it easy to access by either public transport or car.

The structure retains visible elements from its past as a motorcycle assembly workshop, with features that remain noticeable in the building's layout and design. This industrial heritage makes it distinctive for visitors curious about how the space evolved from factory to cinema.
