Kirkstall Abbey recently announced the controversial decision to start charging non-Leeds residents. Visitors without a Leeds postcode will be required to pay for entry into the 870-year-old monastery.
Upon arrival at the Abbey reception, you will be required to show a proof of address that you are a Leeds resident, this means either a driving licence or utility bill. Leeds residents will then receive a Kirkstall Abbey annual pass which lasts 12 months from the date it is registered.
Visitors are then required to input their name, email address and postcode into the system which will register their card. A confirmation email will be sent to you, proving this has been done.
