History
[ edit ] A branch in Wetherby in new branding.
The society was registered as the Leeds and Holbeck (Permanent) Building Society in 1875, though the society originated from a group called the Leeds Union Operative Land and Building Society which formed in 1845.[5] Gibraltar and Dublin , Ireland. The head office is located on Sovereign Street in Leeds city centre .
It should not be confused with the defunct Leeds Permanent Building Society , which was also known as The Leeds , which merged with the Halifax Building Society on 1 August 1995.[6]
On 1 August 2006, following approval by the Mercantile members and confirmation by the Financial Services Authority (FSA), Leeds Building Society merged with Mercantile Building Society , in North Shields , an area of North Tyneside , in Tyne and Wear .[7] [8]
