Photos show near empty Leeds as residents stay home despite lockdown changes

Leeds was still very quiet today (Wednesday, May 13) despite the slight easing of lockdown coming into effect.

A handful of keen golfers took to the city's greens as permitted by the latest changes, but the city centre remained much quieter than usual. The easing of lockdown means people can now exercise as much as they like, relax in the park and meet one other person from a different household as long as they stay two metres apart.
