Leeds was a city in England.
Geography
Leeds was located in northern England. (PROSE: Fear Itself) It was the location of Leeds University which was once attended by Polly Wright. (PROSE: Invasion of the Cat-People)
History
From 1965, Clement McDonald spent forty years in the city, in and out of medical care. (TV: Children of Earth: Day One)
The Second Doctor once encountered a Golem in an alley in Leeds. (PROSE: Golem)
England won the Third Test of the 1981 Ashes series in Leeds against Australia. (PROSE: Graham Dilley Saves the World)
Anji Kapoor's father used to take her to watch Leeds play football when she was a child. (PROSE: Fear Itself)
In a hospital in Leeds in 2011, the Eleventh Doctor drew a Harmonelid out of a boy's ear. (COMIC: Earworm)
Alternative timelines
Inferno
A version of Leeds existed in a parallel version of Earth in which England was a fascist republic. After the disastrous failure of the Inferno Project, seismic disturbances were reported as far north as this version of Leeds. (TV: Inferno)
Graham Dilley Saves the World
In a subsequently erased timeline, Graham Dilley - an English cricketer - failed to catch a ball in the Third Test of the Ashes after being distracted by Tegan Jovanka, causing England to lose. This sparked civil unrest and an assassination attempt on the Queen. Events were later reverted by the Fifth Doctor, Peri Brown and Erimem. (PROSE: Graham Dilley Saves the World)
Donna's World
In an alternate timeline, Donna Noble and her family were relocated to the city following London's destruction by the Titanic. Donna was extremely indignant at being forced to live there. After the activation of the ATMOS devices by the Sontarans, Donna and Rose Tyler watched from a local park as the sky cleared of gas. (TV: Turn Left)
Behind the scenes
Location information
Though it's possible that a real world location doesn't exist in the same geographic space in the Doctor Who universe, such cases are few and far between. Thus, the map to the right is probably a good indicator of the DWU location of Leeds.
