Now we leave the city and head east. We go almost to the A1, but take a right turn down some country lanes before we get there. We're looking for a village called Ledsham.

Ledsham is just in Leeds, which is lucky for us. The Chequers was Leeds CAMRA's Pub of the Season for Winter 2003. This award was made on the strength of the quality of the real ales in the Chequers, especially the beers from Brown Cow brewery in Selby, a rarity indeed for our area.

The Chequers is no stranger to awards, and has won many for its food. The "foodiness" does not detract from the pub, and good real ale is well know for being an ideal accompaniement for good food.

Curiously, the Chequers is closed on Sundays.
