3 Albion Place was originally built in 1820, as residences for the son and grandson of William Hey, a distinguished surgeon. In 1849, this magnificent building was then converted into the home of The Leeds Club – a private members’ club which is today known as Club LS1.

The building and the Club were acquired by its current owner in December 2007. Since that time over 8,000 square feet of space have been renovated. This renovation included removing asbestos, undertaking major re-plumbing and re-wiring work, replacing rotten floors and installing new telephone, Wi-Fi and fibre optic systems. The result is an eclectic blend, which honours the building’s Grade II listed status by mixing the best from the 19th Century with the best of today.

Additional work has also been carried out to convert the basement into The Metier Centre – a centre for business excellence in the heart of Leeds. 3 Albion Place is also home to a number of leading organisations, including the Institute of Directors, North of England Excellence, the Yorkshire Society, ACEVO and Common Purpose.
