HOLBECK, a chapelry in that part of the parish of ST-PETER-LEEDS, which is within the liberty of LEEDS, though locally in the wapentake of Agbrigg, West riding of the county of YORK, 1 mile (S. S. W.) from Leeds, containing 7151 inhabitants. The living is a perpetual curacy, in the archdeaconry and diocese of York, endowed with £400 private benefaction, and £400 roy- -al bounty, amd in the patronage of the Vicar of Leeds. The chapel, which was rebuilt in the last century, is mentioned in a bull of the Pope so early as 809. There is a commodious place of worship for Wesleyan Methodists. Holbeck forms a very extensive part of the environs of the town of Leeds, being joined to it by Waterlane, and, like that place, contains many manufactories for linen and woollen goods upon a very large scale. There are warm and cold baths, the water of which possesses properties similar to the Harrogate springs, but weaker, and is considered salutary for every domestic purpose, being daily carried about the streets of Leeds for sale, at a moderate price.
