A Beautiful Place to Work and Visit

Roundhay isn’t just a place on the map. It’s a community rich with character, history, and some of the best scenery in Leeds. At the heart of it all is Roundhay Park, one of the largest city parks in Europe. With sprawling greenery, scenic lakes, and woodlands perfect for a lunchtime stroll, it’s no wonder we love being based here. While city centre firms are battling for parking spaces and dodging traffic fumes, we’re breathing in fresh air and enjoying the peace and beauty of North Leeds.

Roundhay Park is not merely a scenic retreat. It’s a hub of activity throughout the year. Whether it’s the dazzling autumn colours, summer picnics by Waterloo Lake, or the crisp winter mornings with frost-covered trees, the park offers a year-round escape from the hustle and bustle. Families, dog walkers, runners, and cyclists all share in its beauty, while the park also plays host to large-scale events, concerts, and festivals that bring the community together. From the Rolling Stones, to Madonna, it’s been the host to some of the biggest names in music since 1982. For us, having this stunning green space on our doorstep is a constant reminder of why being a law firm in Roundhay is such a fantastic opportunity.

A Thriving Community and Business Hub

However, our pride at being a law firm in Roundhay isn’t just about beautiful views. Roundhay is a hub of independent businesses, thriving cafés, and a community that genuinely cares. That’s why we’ve launched initiatives like our LS8 Meet-Up, a bi-monthly networking event bringing together local business owners and professionals to connect and support one another. It’s more than simple networking - it’s about building real relationships and fostering a stronger local economy.

We also host the Winston Solicitors Annual Quiz, a fun-filled evening that raises funds for local charities while bringing together the people who make Roundhay such a special place. Whether it’s supporting businesses, fundraising for great causes, or simply strengthening local connections, we believe in giving back to the community.

Popular spots include San Carlo Flying Pizza, a fantastic establishment that recently celebrated its 50-year anniversary.

Roundhay’s Rich History

Much like Winston Solicitors, Roundhay has a fascinating history. The area dates back to the Domesday Book. Once a medieval hunting ground, it was later transformed into a stunning landscape of parkland and residential areas. Roundhay Park itself was originally acquired by the Nicholson family in the 19th century before being gifted to the city of Leeds in 1871. Since then, it has become one of the most treasured green spaces in the country, providing generations with a place to relax, exercise, and enjoy nature. Its historic features, including the Mansion House and Waterloo Lake, are reminders of its storied past and enduring significance to the community. Don’t forget to check out the folly as you stroll around the park! 

Client feedback

We recently used Winston Solicitors for conveyancing on both the sale of our previous home and the purchase of our new one. Michelle Ayres was exceptional throughout. She was accessible, proactive, and it genuinely felt like she was on our side and working in our best interests.There were a few challenges in the chain, but Michelle was always willing to take the time to explain the situation, outline our options, and keep everything moving. As our process stretched over 6 months, there were times when Michelle was out of the office, but Olivia Cooke and Samantha Robertson-Strong seamlessly picked things up and ensured nothing ever slipped.It was an outstanding experience that made a difficult and often stressful process far more manageable. We would highly recommend Winston Solicitors and especially Michelle to anyone, and we will certainly look to use their services again in future (although we plan to enjoy our new home and give ourselves a well earned break for now!).

The service I recieved regarding wills and powers of attourney, were handled in a very professional and sympathetic manner. Thanks must go to Monika for leading me through the" legal minefield" involved. My late wife and I originally used Winstons years ago for all our legal dealings at the time and we could honestly say we could not have chosen better.

Samantha Robertson-Strong has dealt with the conveyancing for the sale of my property and purchase of a new home. Throughout the process of selling Samantha dealt with queries from the buyers promptly and professionally. This included one particular hiccup, that threatened to delay and complicate matters, by simply advising on a point of law that the buyer’s solicitor was seemingly not aware of.The purchase of our new home was dealt with in a similar manner, no stone left unturned, fast paced and with regular up dates on which stage we had reached. We felt well informed and in good hands throughout the process.Fast to respond, no flannel and an in-depth knowledge of property law Samantha is exceptional and I would recommend her services to anyone about to buy or sell a property.
