Leeds was an agricultural community during the Middle Ages when it sold the foods and wool cloth it derived off the land. Part of the Aire Valley, Leeds rests along the River Aire, and is a city distinguished for its interesting landmarks, historical gardens, and exclusive retailers and restaurants.
If you visit the city in March, you will be greeted by an average temperature of 41 degrees Fahrenheit (5 degrees on the Celsius scale). During the day the temperature settles around 48 degrees Fahrenheit (9 degrees Celsius) while it rests at 36 degrees (2 degrees Celsius), on average, during the night time hours.
Precipitation is typically recorded at around 46 mm, with snow covering the landscape on occasion. Residents and visitors enjoy 12 hours of daylight with the sun shining exceptionally bright for about a quarter of that time.
If you visit Leeds in March, you won't want to miss a journey to Harewood House. The noted residence of the Earl of Harewood was constructed in the later part of the 1700s. Located in Yorkshire, just outside of Leeds, the house features Chippendale furnishings, fine collections of porcelain, and artwork by such renowned artists as Gainsborough and El Greco.
Visitors, too, like to eat brunch at the weekends at The Restaurant Bar and Grill, which is located in the centre of City Square. Travellers savour English favourites, such as Gloucester pork sausage with granary toast or sample the black pudding, complemented by mushrooms, tomato, and toast.
Leeds offers accommodations that are well-situated, close to transportation, shopping, and entertainment. During your stay, you may want to book a room at the Avalon Guest House, a family-run hotel close to Leed's City Centre, or find accommodation at Weetwood Hall, a four-star hotel that is surrounded by nine acres of park-like scenery.
