About this location
Shire Oak at Heart Centre is a community centre in Headingley, the inner north Leeds suburb known for the cricket ground, the university district, and the concentration of student and professional residential housing between the city centre and Meanwood. At 150-person capacity the main hall is one of the larger community spaces in the LS6 postcode. The Headingley location means the exterior context is north Leeds residential — a different visual register from the city centre or the industrial belt south of the river. At £108/hr the rate is at the upper end of the community hall market, but the capacity and the Headingley location justify the position for productions that need the north Leeds suburban character.
Headingley’s residential streets — a mix of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, student housing, and the established leafy avenues running toward Weetwood — give a specific north Leeds character that appears regularly in Yorkshire drama and social realism productions. The LS6 postcode is served by buses to Leeds city centre (20 minutes) and is within walking distance of Burley Park station. On-site parking covers most crew vehicle needs. For productions working the Headingley and north Leeds area as a primary location, having a community hall base within the district removes the daily return to a city-centre or out-of-town studio. Booking via Tagvenue in hourly increments from £108/hr.
