LEEDS was bathed in a sea of green this week as St Patick’s celebrations got underway.
There was a huge turnout in for the city’s annual parade, which got off to a brilliant start on a cold day.
Lord Mayor of Leeds Abigail Marshall was among those in attendance on the day, which also welcomed Ant Hanlon of the Leeds Irish Health and Homes charity and Deirdre O’Flaherty, the Vice Consul General of Ireland in Manchester.
