Leeds’s latest cohort of first year university students are beginning to settle in to their new accommodation.
For students attending the University of Leeds, hundreds of lucky students will be moving into their newest accommodation at Carlton Hill, which opened in 2023.
Carlton Hill is a brand-new development which offers stylish city living for students, and is just a short walk from both the city centre and the University campus.
The property is made up of 88 flats with a capacity ranging from 4-8 rooms per apartment. All rooms are en-suite and feature 4ft 3/4 beds and plenty of storage space, while the shared communal areas such as the kitchen and living spaces are open plan.
Yorkshire Evening Post photographer Gerard Binks was given an exclusive look inside...
