Amazing drone footage flyover of Harehills shows Leeds suburb like never before

The video, Harehills: A View From The Sky, showcases the entire area from the sky, all filmed on drone cameras in high resolution.

Uploaded by account @Harehills111 on Twitter and The Leeds Project on YouTube, the video shows landmarks of Harehills such as Ark Community Cafe, the Compton Centre library, Morrisons, Harehills park and the Jamia Masjid Bilal mosque all from the air.

The footage was well received by residents of Harehills.

Twitter account @HarehillsLove said: "This was amazing - I'm literally blown away seeing Harehills like this. I'm struggling to find the words right now, you've done something that is simply amazing. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you."

Earlier this year, Yorkshire Evening Post reporter Emma Ryan reported from the Harehills community to shine a light on the people that call the estate home.

The report said: "Whatever your perception of Harehills is before and after this, it is a place that is alive.

"The hive of activity, say people we spoke to, in the street makes for a self-sufficient, self-funding and tight knit community."
