Headingley Castle, Victorian mansion in Headingley, United Kingdom.

The stone exterior of Headingley Castle features a central three-story tower with battlements, octagonal buttresses, and Tudor-style architectural elements throughout the structure.

Constructed between 1843 and 1846 by architect John Child for corn merchant Thomas England, the mansion initially encompassed 22 acres of land in Leeds.

The building transitions reflect local changes, from a private residence to a school for the blind and later council offices before becoming residential flats.

The mansion contains four bedrooms, three reception rooms, staff quarters, and outdoor spaces with a BBQ area, available for short-term rentals.

The entrance displays the Latin motto 'ACE QUOD ACIS' above the door, encouraging visitors to perform their actions with excellence.
