Leeds Minster
A grand Victorian parish church with a famous choir and Saxon crosses, free, beside the market.
Leeds Minster was rebuilt in the 1840s on a cathedral scale and holds a fine Saxon cross and a musical tradition that draws people to its services and concerts. It is free, quiet and two minutes from Kirkgate Market, which makes it an easy pause on a wet afternoon. Check the concert listings.
When it works
Indoors, so the weather does not matter. Best morning, afternoon.
