Ashwood Centre, Gothic Revival church in Headingley, United Kingdom.
Ashwood Centre is a Gothic Revival building in Headingley featuring pointed arches and intricate stonework across its exterior of gritstone and slate. The structure now contains residential apartments, a duplex dwelling, and communal hall space following its comprehensive renovation.
The building was constructed in 1864 under architect Cuthbert Brodrick's design as a church for the local congregation. It received Grade II listed status in 1996 in recognition of its architectural importance.
The building once served as a congregational meeting place where the community gathered for worship and social events. Today people continue to use the space for religious gatherings and community activities.
The building is situated on Headingley Road in Leeds and is accessible within a well-established neighborhood. Parts of the building are private residential spaces, so visitors may not have access to all areas of the site.
After serving various purposes throughout its history, the building now functions as a mixed-use space combining religious activities with residential apartments. This adaptive approach shows how heritage structures can evolve to meet contemporary needs while preserving their original character.
