People in Leeds' richest village will 'layer up' to combat skyrocketing energy bills

Residents in Leeds’ wealthiest village have said they’ll have to layer up come winter amid fears about the rising cost of energy bills.

Average gas and electricity bills have been predicted to reach an average of £4,200 per household by 2023, according to industry body Energy UK. There are fears a cold winter could hit residents hard.

Linton is the most desirable village in Leeds, with house prices on one street averaging at £1,791,000. The green and leafy village is located in North Leeds, near to Wetherby. Colossal country mansions loom over the winding hilly country lanes, their splendour guarded behind electric gates with state-of-the-art telecoms systems.
