'''Beeston''' is a suburb of [[Leeds]], [[West Yorkshire]], England located on a hill about 2 miles (3&nbsp;km) south of the city centre.

The origins of Beeston can be traced back to the [[medieval]] period. It remained a small settlement until the latter part of the Victorian era when it became a primarily residential area for people working in Leeds and surrounding industrial areas like [[Holbeck]] and [[Hunslet]].

At the time of the [[2011 Census for England and Wales|2011 Census]], Beeston had a population of 22,187 (which included Holbeck). Some parts of the area, around Cross Flatts Park, suffer from relatively high levels of deprivation, while areas to the centre and south are generally considered more affluent.  Beeston is home to the [[Leeds United F.C.|Leeds United]] football club stadium on Elland Road and [[Hunslet R.L.F.C.|Hunslet]] rugby league club.

==Etymology==
The name ''Beeston'' is first attested in the [[Domesday Book]], in the form ''Bestone''. The name seems to come from [[Old English]] *''bēos'' 'bent-grass' (L. [[Agrostis]]) and ''tūn'' 'estate, village'. Thus it once meant 'estate characterised by bent-grass'.<ref>A. H. Smith, The Place-Names of the West Riding of Yorkshire, English Place-Names Society, 30–37, 8 vols (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1961–63), III 217; cf. ''The Vocabulary of English Place-Names (Á-BOX)'', ed. by David Parsons and Tania Styles with Carole Hough (Nottingham: Centre for Name Studies, 1997), s.v. *''bēos''.</ref>

The northern area of Beeston, situated on a hillside facing north to the centre of Leeds, came in the nineteenth century to be called Beeston Hill. This area was formerly called Cat Beeston (and variant spellings), a name first attested in 1398 as ''Catbeston'' and ''Cattbeston''. The ''Cat'' element is also found in a local field-name, ''Cadtheweit'' (whose second element comes from [[Old Norse]] ''þveit'', meaning 'clearing'), attested in 1202. The ''Cat'' element could come from the Old English word ''catt'' ('cat, wild-cat') or from a [[personal name]] ''Cada''. Recent scholarship prefers the latter interpretation, in which case ''Cat Beeston'' once meant 'Cada's estate characterised by bent-gress', while ''Cadtheweit'' meant 'Cada's clearing'.<ref name=":0" />{{rp|24}}

To the west of Beeston lies Beeston Royds, whose name is first attested (as ''Beyston Royds'') in 1633. The ''royds'' element comes from the Old English word ''rod'' ('clearing').<ref name=":0">Harry Parkin, ''Your City's Place-Names: Leeds'', English Place-Name Society City-Names Series, 3 (Nottingham: English Place-Names Society, 2017).</ref>{{rp|25}}

Another district of Beeston is the Cross Flatts area. This name is first attested in 1636, as ''Crossflatts'' and other spellings. The [[Middle English]] word ''flat'' meant 'piece of level ground, field', but the precise significance of 'cross' is unclear. It is thought to refer to some cross-shaped pattern of field divisions.<ref name=":0" />{{rp|40–41}}

==History==
{{Moresources|section|date=July 2023}}
The origin of the settlement is likely to be Anglo-Saxon.<ref name="Beeston History">{{cite news | url=http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/latest-news/central-leeds/beeston_history_1_2621274 |title=Beeston History | newspaper=Yorkshire Evening Post | access-date=24 August 2011}}</ref> Beeston is first mentioned in the 1086 [[Domesday Book]], when it had recently been granted to [[Ilbert de Lacy]] (1045–93); in 1066 it had been worth 40 shillings (£2), but in 1086 it was considered waste, presumably because of the [[Harrying of the North]].<ref name="David Thornton 2013">David Thornton, ''Leeds: A Historical Dictionary of People, Places and Events'' (Huddersfield: Northern Heritage Publications, 2013), s.v. ''BEESTON''.</ref> It was one of the ten 'out-townships' of the [[Leeds Minster#The parish|Parish of Leeds]] until the parish was broken up in the 1840s-50s.

In the medieval period, Beeston was associated with [[Medieval English wool trade|sheep-farming]]: the monks of [[Kirkstall Abbey]] grazed 240 sheep there. Founding [[Drax Priory]] in the 1130s, [[William Paynel]] granted it land in Beeston. A small hospital seems to have been founded in the township around 1233, and a chapel dedicated to St Mary the Virgin may also have been founded in the 13th century.<ref name="David Thornton 2013"/>

The oldest buildings in Beeston today date to the 15th century. Cad Beeston (also Cad-Beeston, Cat Beeston, Cat-Beeston) manor house has been dated by [[dendrochronology]] to about 1420, and is a grade II* [[listed building]]; recently used as private offices, it is now a private dwelling, with no public access.<ref>{{National Heritage List for England|num=1255940 |desc=The Manor House Cad Beeston|access-date=14 October 2011}}</ref> Parts of [[Stank Hall]] Barn, a grade II* listed scheduled ancient monument originally built for the storage of crops, have been dated to between 1448 and 1490.<ref>{{National Heritage List for England|num=1375339 |desc=Stank Hall Barn|access-date=14 October 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.leeds.gov.uk/Environment_and_planning/Archaeology/Historic_sites_and_monuments.aspx |title=Ancient Monuments |publisher=Leeds City Council |access-date=14 October 2011 |url-status = dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111227125758/http://leeds.gov.uk/Environment_and_planning/Archaeology/Historic_sites_and_monuments.aspx |archive-date=27 December 2011 |df=dmy }}</ref>

By the early 17th century the area had a reputation for manufacturing [[Bobbin lace|bone lace]], and by the middle of the century, coal-mining was underway in the area.<ref name="David Thornton 2013"/> According to David Thornton,
<blockquote>in December 1688 rumours abounded in the town [of Leeds] that an army of Roman Catholics were ravaging the surrounding area. [[Ralph Thoresby]] recorded, 'Beeston is actually burnt, and only some escaped to bring the doleful tidings! The drums beat, the bells rang backward, the women shrieked, and some doleful consternation seized upon all persons ... (B)lessed be God! The terror disappeared, it being a false alarm, taken from some drunken people.'<ref name="David Thornton 2013"/></blockquote>

Between 1740 and 1820, the Leeds-Elland and Dewsbury-Leeds [[turnpike trusts|turnpike]] roads were built through Beeston; nationalised in the 1870s these roads remain as Elland Road and Dewsbury Road respectively. By 1822, Beeston had a population of 1,670.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/WRY/Leeds/more.html | title=In 1822, the following places were in the Parish of Leeds | publisher=GENUKI|access-date=18 October 2011}}</ref>

Until the 19th century, Beeston had been a small mining village situated on a hill overlooking Leeds. However, during the [[Industrial Revolution]], land that had been occupied by open pits, as well as land formerly utilised for farming, was snapped up for high density residential development.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/relationships.jsp?u_id=10397595 |title=Relationships / unit history of BEESTON |author=A vision of Britain through time |access-date=5 November 2007 |url-status = dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110605014135/http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/relationships.jsp?u_id=10397595 |archive-date=5 June 2011 |df=dmy }}</ref> By 1872, Beeston is recorded as having a population of 2,547 with 537 houses, a [[railway station]] and a [[post office]],<ref>{{cite web|title=History of Britain, in Leeds and Yorkshire|url=http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/place/place_page.jsp?p_id=21335|work=A vision of Britain through time|access-date=18 October 2011}}</ref> and 'by the end of the 19th century Beeston was predominantly a working class community living in back-to-backs'.<ref name="David Thornton 2013"/> Beeston was a township and civil parish 1866–1904, then was absorbed into [[Holbeck]] civil parish before this was absorbed into Leeds in 1925.

On the night of [[Leeds Blitz|14 March and early hours of 15 March 1941]], during the [[Second World War]], Leeds received its worst night of [[Luftwaffe|German]] aerial bombing. Beeston had more bombs dropped on it than any other district of the city and although Flaxton Terrace was damaged during the night time [[Strategic bombing|air raid]], escaped with the less damage than most other areas of Leeds with nearly all the other bombs landing on Cross Flatts Park. In his 2005 poem "Shrapnel", [[Tony Harrison]], who was in Beeston on the night of the raid, speculates whether this was an act of heroism by the German pilot, a theory that has been explored ever since the raid.<ref>{{cite news|title=Bombs over Beeston|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/leeds/content/articles/2008/12/12/local_history_beeston_bombing_feature.shtml|access-date=17 October 2011|newspaper=BBC Leeds|date=12 December 2008}}</ref> Holbeck Cemetery, in Beeston, also features prominently in Harrison's 1985 poem "[[V (poem)|V]]".{{cn|date=July 2023}}

Beeston was formerly home to card and board game manufacturer [[Waddingtons]], though the factory was vacated in the 1990s, and is now home to Nampak Cartons.{{cn|date=July 2023}}

In 2006, the district was the setting for much of the film ''[[Mischief Night (2006 film)|Mischief Night]]''.{{cn|date=July 2023}}

== Geography and demographics ==
{{Moresources|section|date=July 2023}}
[[File:LeedsSkyline2013.jpg|thumb|right|Looking towards Leeds city centre from Beeston Hill]]
Beeston is an inner-city area located close to Leeds city centre. It is severed from the areas to the north by the [[M621 motorway]], separated from [[Middleton, Leeds|Middleton]] by Middleton Park and from [[Cottingley, Leeds|Cottingley]] by the [[Leeds Outer Ring Road]].

Beeston can be described as three distinct areas. Beeston - Parkside and Cross Flatts area and Beeston Hill are separated by Cross Flatts Park which runs between Dewsbury Road and Town Street: Beeston Hill to the east, and Parkside and Cross Flatts to the west. The distinction between these two areas has probably existed since medieval times when they were two separate manors.<ref name="Beeston History"/> Beeston - Elland Road and Millshaw is primarily industrial and centred on Elland Road to the west of the area.

===Beeston - Parkside and Cross Flatts area===
The Parkside and Cross Flatts area of Beeston, sometimes locally known as Beeston Village, is centred on a shopping centre comprising a [[Nisa (retailer)|Nisa]] food store and a number of smaller shops. Housing in this part of Beeston is made up of almost equal proportions of late Victorian and early-20th-century terraced housing to the east of Old Lane, and newer semi-detached family and housing association properties to the west.<ref name=ParksideandCrossFlatts>{{cite web|title=Beeston - Parkside and Cross Flatts |url=http://www.leeds.gov.uk/files/Internet2007/2011/6/e02002420.pdf |archive-url=http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20110929023116/http://www.leeds.gov.uk/files/Internet2007/2011/6/e02002420.pdf |url-status = dead|archive-date=29 September 2011 |work=Leeds Neighbourhood Index |publisher=Leeds City Council |access-date=17 October 2011 }}</ref> To the south side of Dewsbury Road, there are significant areas of industrial premises.

Indicators for health, economic activity and community safety in this area are broadly consistent with averages for the City of Leeds as a whole.<ref name=ParksideandCrossFlatts />

===Beeston Hill area===

[[File:Beeston Hill.jpg|thumb|right|Tempest Road, Beeston Hill]]

Beeston Hill is largely made up of areas of older Victoria terraces and newer social housing, which comprises around a third of the housing stock in the area.<ref name=BeestonHill>{{cite web|title=Beeston Hill |url=http://www.leeds.gov.uk/files/Internet2007/2011/6/e02002415.pdf |work=Leeds Neighbourhood Index |publisher=Leeds City Council |access-date=17 October 2011 |url-status = dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304051524/http://www.leeds.gov.uk/files/Internet2007/2011/6/e02002415.pdf |archive-date=4 March 2016 |df=dmy }}</ref> In April 2008, a £93&nbsp;million [[Private Finance Initiative|PFI]] scheme to build 700 private and housing association dwellings and regenerate some existing stock was announced.<ref>

</ref> As a particularly deprived area, Beeston Hill along with [[Holbeck]] was the beneficiary of [[Objective 2]] European funding. Beeston Hill has a relatively high level of empty housing as well as a number of significant unoccupied commercial premises. Beeston Hill has a significant ethnic minority population, with around 40% of the population from BME Communities.<ref name=BeestonHill />

The area suffers from a high level of deprivation, with indicators for health, economic activity and community safety substantially worse than for the City of Leeds as a whole.<ref name=BeestonHill />

===Beeston - Elland Road and Millshaw Area===
The west of Beeston around Elland Road has significant amounts of industrial estates, with a substantial amount of mainly semi-detached and terraced housing to the western edge of the Parkside and Cross Flatts area. This also forms much of the Old Village side of Beeston, as can be seen in many of the houses along Town Street/Milshaw.

== Transport ==
===Railway===
[[File:Beeston (West Yorks.) Station 1779989 ae7d591c.jpg|thumb|right|The former railway station at Beeston in 1961]]

Beeston has a main-line railway line running along its western edge along which all services between [[Leeds railway station|Leeds]] and [[London King's Cross railway station|London King's Cross]] and [[St Pancras railway station|London St Pancras]] run; however, there are no stations along it, as [[Beeston railway station (West Yorkshire)|Beeston station]] closed to passengers in 1953.

The nearest railway station is [[Cottingley railway station|Cottingley]], which is just under a mile away from the Town Street end of Beeston. Services between Leeds and [[Huddersfield railway station|Huddersfield]] are operated by [[TransPennine Express]], stopping at Morley, Batley, Dewsbury, Ravensthorpe, Mirfield and Deighton.<ref> {{Cite web |work=TransPennine Express |title=Timetables |date=21 May 2023 |access-date=19 June 2023 |url= https://www.tpexpress.co.uk/travel-updates/timetables |quote=}}</ref>

===Buses===
Beeston is served by a number of bus services along Dewsbury Road, Elland Road and Town Street, operated primarily by [[First Leeds]] and [[Arriva Yorkshire]]; these include:<ref>{{Cite web |title=Stops in Beeston, Leeds |work=Bus Times |date=2023 |access-date=19 June 2023 |url= https://bustimes.org/localities/beeston-leeds |quote=}}</ref>
* A [[Park and Ride]] site to Leeds has been built opposite Elland Road police station 
* First services 2, 12, 75 and 86 link much of Beeston with Middleton, Belle Isle and Hunslet
* Service 65 links much of Beeston with Morley and Gildersome
* Services 51 and 52 link areas close to Elland Road with Morley
* Services 200 and 201 link the Dewsbury Road/White Rose side of Beeston to Morley
* The frequent No. 1 bus service largely follows the route of the former [[Leeds Tramway]] route 5 through Beeston; it continues beyond Leeds to Lawnswood/West Park.

===Roads===
Beeston Hill and Beeston are severed from Leeds by the [[M621 motorway|M621]] and therefore benefit from very good links with the M621 motorway, as well as the [[M62 motorway|M62]] which runs close to Beeston to the south of Morley.

Several taxi companies serve Beeston, including Beeston Line, Central Cars, Veezu (formally Amber, who acquired South Leeds and Gee Gee Cars) and South East Cars.<ref>[http://www.wyita.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/CB9EB85F-DC13-4225-B305-047207E922B5/0/LTPC18MAY2011ITEM4.pdf Development of a Bid to the Local Transport Fund] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120422004258/http://www.wyita.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/CB9EB85F-DC13-4225-B305-047207E922B5/0/LTPC18MAY2011ITEM4.pdf |date=22 April 2012 }} May 2011</ref>

[[File:The Spinning Wheel (geograph 5708949).jpg|thumb|The Spinning Wheel pub]]
Much of Beeston's traditional heavy industry and fabrication works have closed throughout the last forty years. However, there are substantial areas of industrial and commercial development around Elland Road and to the south of Dewsbury Road and Beeston is surrounded by areas which have become popular with businesses, such as [[Leeds city centre]], [[Tingley]] and many of the business districts along the south side of the [[River Aire]]. The neighbouring [[White Rose Shopping Centre]] employs thousands of full- and part-time staff.

[[File:Beestoncoop.jpg|thumb|right|The [[The Co-operative Group|Co-op]] on Old Lane]]

== Education ==
Beeston is home to the Beeston Centre of the [[Leeds City College]] (formerly [[Joseph Priestley College]]) and [[Elliott Hudson College]]. Beeston has one secondary school, [[Cockburn School]] which is a specialist arts college.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.cockburn.leeds.sch.uk/ |title=Cockburn School website |access-date=29 June 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170925162221/http://cockburn.leeds.sch.uk/ |archive-date=25 September 2017 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Matthew Murray High School situated between Beeston and [[Holbeck]] closed down in 2004 and was merged with Merlyn Rees High School in [[Belle Isle, Leeds|Belle Isle]], to form South Leeds High School in Belle Isle. In September 2009 South Leeds High School was reopened as the [[South Leeds Academy]].<ref>[http://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/localnews/Green-light-for-new-city.5619465.jp Green light for new city academy], yorkshirepost.co.uk. Accessed 11 July 2023.</ref>

In September 2017, South Leeds Academy was renamed and rebranded as Cockburn John Charles Academy, as the Cockburn MAT opened a new school. There are seven primary schools in the area.{{cn|date=July 2023}}

==Local facilities and attractions==
{{Moresources|section|date=July 2023}}
Beeston has a range of facilities. It has two large health centres, [[Elland Road]] stadium and the [[John Charles Centre for Sport]]. Leeds city centre is a short distance away and the [[M1 motorway|M1]] and [[M62 motorway|M62]] motorways are easily accessed. Cross Flatts Park has many facilities, which include 5-a-side football pitches, tennis courts, two separate play areas one for older children and one for younger children and a bowling green.

===Stadiums===
{{Main|Elland Road}}
[[File:Elland Road 4.jpg|thumb|right|Elland Road Stadium]]
Beeston is home to two stadiums: 
*[[Elland Road]], home of [[Leeds United AFC]], has a 39,640 capacity, all-seater stadium<ref>[http://www.leedsunited.com/page/Records/0,,10273,00.html Leeds United Club Records] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100808171238/http://www.leedsunited.com/page/Records/0,,10273,00.html |date=8 August 2010 }}</ref> on Elland Road, adjacent to the [[M621 motorway|M621]] in the north of Beeston. 
* The [[South Leeds Stadium]], part of the [[John Charles Centre for Sport]] is situated on Middleton Grove (off Dewsbury Road) on the southern edge of Beeston. This is home to [[Hunslet R.L.F.C.|Hunslet]] rugby league club, as well as hosting athletics and aquatic sports in the new Aquatic Centre (the replacement for the [[Leeds International Swimming Pool]]); this opened in October 2008 and provides an Olympic standard swimming pool and diving pool. The centre also has indoor bowling, indoor Tennis Centre, athletics stadium, 5-a-side football pitches, rugby pitches and outdoor gym equipment.

[[File:Southleedsstadium.jpg|thumb|right|South Leeds Stadium, at the John Charles Centre for Sport]]

===Cross Flatts Park===
Cross Flatts Park covers an area of 44 [[acre]]s (17.8 [[hectare]]s)<ref>[http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?resourceIdentifier=200515_37427920 Cross Flatts Park]</ref> in the centre of Beeston. While the park formerly suffered from neglect and had a high crime rate, through the work of the Council and community groups such as Friends of Cross Flatts Park and [[Britain in Bloom|Beeston in Bloom]] the park has been cleaned up and made safer and more welcoming.<ref>[http://www.leedsliveitloveit.com/visitors/places-to-go~page/cross-flatts-park-beeston Cross Flatts Park, Beeston] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120331214035/http://www.leedsliveitloveit.com/visitors/places-to-go~page/cross-flatts-park-beeston |date=31 March 2012 }}</ref>

The park has a large multi-use games area which includes [[five-a-side football]] pitches, [[basketball]] courts and [[tennis]] courts, while the park boasts an artificial [[cricket]] pitch, a children's play area and outdoor gym equipment. The park is the venue for the [http://beestonfestival.org.uk/ Beeston Festival] which takes place annually in June, and in summer and school holidays is host to numerous activities for young people.
The park hosts a weekly 5&nbsp;km [[Parkrun]] every Saturday morning at 9am, over 1,000 runners have taken part in the event since it began on 30 March 2013.

===Holbeck Cemetery===
[[File:Guinea Graves Holbeck 2014.jpg|thumb|right|Guinea Graves]]
Holbeck Cemetery in Beeston opened in 1857 and closed to general burials in the 1940s.  During the period it was operational, thousands of people were buried there with many in 'guinea graves' with several unrelated people buried in the same plot.  The graves were so called for the shared headstones on which a single-line inscription cost one [[Guinea (British coin)|guinea]] (21 [[Shilling (British coin)|shillings]]).

[[Henry Rowland Marsden]], the Victorian industrialist and former mayor of Leeds, is buried in Holbeck Cemetery where his family grave is marked by a Grade II-listed memorial.<ref>{{National Heritage List for England|num=1375436 |desc=Holbeck Cemetery Memorial to Henry Marsden approximately 20 metres west of Lodge|access-date=14 October 2011}}</ref>

The poem "[[V (poem)|V]]" by Tony Harrison, published in 1985, describes a visit to Holbeck Cemetery and his reaction to finding his parents' tombstones vandalised.

In 2008 Shaftesbury House, a working men's hostel designed for the council by George C. Robb in 1936, was converted by Citu to the Greenhouse, an eco-friendly housing project.  The building had been empty for a number of years and had previously been earmarked for demolition.

The development, which includes 172 homes, office space and other facilities, is one of the UK's first low-carbon housing developments and incorporates wind turbines, solar panels and ground source heating as well as energy efficient materials and rainwater and [[greywater]] recycling. The development has won a large number of awards, including, in 2011, the Regeneration and Renewal Magazine Regeneration Award for Sustainability, with judges praising the holistic way it addressed sustainability and provides real regeneration benefits to a deprived area.<ref>{{cite news| work=Planning Magazine | location=London | title=Regeneration Awards 2011 | date=7 October 2011 }}</ref> Robb Street and Avenue are likely named after its architect George C Robb, who was chief housing architect for RAH Livett, Leeds Housing Director and later City Architect.

==Governance==
{{see also|Beeston and Holbeck (ward)|Hunslet and Riverside (ward)}}

==London bombings==

{{Main|7 July 2005 London bombings}}

Beeston was the focus of press attention following 7 July 2005 London bombings when it was revealed that two of the four bombers had lived in the area. On 12 July, two properties in Beeston were raided by police in connection with the attacks.<ref>{{cite news| url=http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/latest-news/central-leeds/shock_in_the_morning_1_2104189| work=Yorkshire Evening Post| title=Shock in the Morning | date=12 July 2005 | access-date=17 October 2011}}</ref> According to [[West Yorkshire Police]], a significant amount of explosive material was found in the raids and a controlled explosion was carried out at one of the properties.

===After-effects===
The link between 7 July bombings and Beeston became known several days after the event took place. When news began to emerge of the Beeston link to the attacks, community and religious groups from across Beeston came together to condemn the atrocities.<ref>{{cite news| url=http://www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/news/latest-news/central-leeds/call_for_calm_as_religious_and_community_leaders_show_unity_1_2104391| work=Yorkshire Evening Post| title=Call for calm as religious and community leaders show unity | date=12 July 2005 | access-date=17 October 2011 |first=Ian |last=Rosser}}</ref> There was a significant pulling together of people across the community with two ''Beeston Together for Peace'' marches being held. Each were joined by hundreds of people, some as the procession passed. The second procession ended at [[Millennium Square (Leeds)|Millennium Square]] in Leeds city centre, uniting with people from other parts of Leeds for an interfaith vigil.<ref>{{cite news| url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/west_yorkshire/4710729.stm| work=BBC News | title=Residents join in march for peace | date=23 July 2005 | access-date=17 October 2011}}</ref>

===Beeston in the press===
Following the London press, Beeston was thrust into the local, regional, national and international press, with journalists from as far away as [[North America]] and [[Japan]] arriving in the area to cover the reaction to the events of the previous week.<ref>{{cite news| url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2005/jul/21/northerner.davidward?INTCMP=SRCH| work=The Guardian| title=The Paradox of Beeston | date=21 July 2005 | access-date=17 October 2011 |first=David |last=Ward}}</ref> The tone of the reporting was mixed, some sympathetic to the area, many even describing Beeston as a 'leafy suburb', whereas others painted a less salubrious picture of Beeston.

'''The Guardian'''

Writing a year after the bombings, a journalist from ''[[The Guardian]]'' visited Beeston with the aim of going "beyond the stereotypical pictures of veiled women and bearded men strolling past dilapidated buildings." The article reported that the community in Beeston had on the whole condemned the attacks.<ref>{{cite news| url=https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2006/jul/06/july7.uksecurity | work=The Guardian | location=London | title=Behind Beeston's stereotypes | date=6 July 2006 | access-date=26 April 2010 | first=Eduardo | last=Martino}}</ref>

'''NBC'''

American news network [[NBC]] described Beeston as "a drab and derelict neighbourhood in Leeds, three hours north of London, where three of the four London suicide bombers were born and raised". The article later stated, "Beeston, a poor racially mixed community, is lined with small row houses built in another era to house the factory workers who were one of the cornerstones of the British industry. The neighbourhood has long accommodated immigrant communities — from Asia in the 1960s to Eastern Europe and Africa today. Reportedly, almost half the households now are on some sort of state assistance."<ref>[http://www.nbcnews.com/id/13720432 NBC News]</ref>

'''Los Angeles Times'''

The ''[[Los Angeles Times]]'' described Beeston as an "ethnically mixed, downtrodden suburb". Setting the scene, it also said "Peeping from lacy curtains in red-brick rowhouses, tattooed white men, turbaned [[Sikh]]s and olive-skinned women in gauzy headscarves shared what they knew."<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.calendarlive.com/movies/video/ny-woside154344002jul15,2,7644680.story|title = Entertainment & Arts}}</ref>

'''International Herald Tribune'''

One year after the London Bombings, the ''[[International Herald Tribune]]'' described Beeston as a "grim northern neighbourhood". The paper also said "It is a poor and racially mixed neighbourhood of back-to-back row houses with a population of just a few thousand where successive waves of immigrants from Asia in the 1960s, and now from East Europe and Africa, have spread a tangled overlay on a cityscape forged in Victorian Britain. The bright pink and turquoise [[sari]]s of Asian women offer chromatic relief from drab brick homes".<ref>{{cite web| url = http://www.iht.com/articles/2006/07/04/news/britain.php| url-status = dead| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20060717215326/http://www.iht.com/articles/2006/07/04/news/britain.php| archive-date = 2006-07-17| title = A year after London bombings, what lessons? - Europe - International Herald Tribune}} </ref>

'''Socialist Worker'''

The ''[[Socialist Worker]]'' focused on Beeston's positive aspect and reported on the 'Beeston United for Peace' vigil, organised by Beeston members of the [[Stop the War Coalition]]. The 150 strong march from [[Hyde Park, Leeds|Hyde Park]] was also covered.<ref>{{Cite news|url=http://www.socialistworker.co.uk/art.php?id=6979|title = Beeston unites for peace in wake of London bombings|newspaper = Socialist Worker (Britain)}}</ref>
