Quiet contemplation spaces

Explore some of the calm outdoor and indoor spaces on campus where you can take a break, rest and reflect.

St George’s Field 

Hidden within the campus is a cemetery site called St George’s Field, which is an important piece of Leeds's Victorian history. St George’s Field is a peaceful green space to visit, and has benches to sit on. 

Chancellor’s Court 

Another outdoor space you might want to bear in mind if you're looking for peace and quiet is Chancellor’s Court – an open area next to the Roger Stevens Lecture Theatre. 

The Galleries

Quiet space indoors might be hard to come by during term-time. However, the Stanley & Audrey Burton Gallery and Treasures of the Brotherton Gallery in the Parkinson Building are hidden gems where you can find calm. They house temporary exhibitions and treasures from the University’s library and art collections.
