Elinor Lupton Centre, Grade II listed building in Headingley, Leeds, United Kingdom.

The three-story Portland limestone structure stands at the junction of Headingley Lane and Richmond Road, featuring Egyptian Revival architectural elements.

The building underwent construction in multiple phases, with the Sunday School opening in 1914 and the main auditorium completion delayed until 1925 due to World War I.

Initially serving as a Christian Science Church, the building transformed into an educational facility when Leeds Girls High School acquired it in 1986 for theatre and music programs.

The main entrance from Headingley Lane leads to a foyer connected to the theatre auditorium, with additional music rooms distributed across different floors.

Two paintings near the auditorium entrance depict historical scenes of elegantly dressed people gathering outside the building during its church period.
