Oulton, West Yorkshire

Oulton /ˈltən/ is a village in the City of Leeds metropolitan borough, West Yorkshire, England, between Leeds and Wakefield. It is at the junction of the A639 and A642 roads. Though now adjoining the village of Woodlesford, it was once quite separate.[citation needed]

The village formed part of the Rothwell Urban District until its merger into the City of Leeds Metropolitan District in 1974. Today, it sits in the Rothwell ward of Leeds City Council. It is also in the Wakefield and Rothwell parliamentary constituency.

Oulton Hall was built in 1850 and is now a hotel and conference centre.

The Oulton Raiders rugby league club was founded in 1962 as Oulton Miners Welfare. In 2018 the team reached the third round of the Challenge Cup. The women's team, the Oulton Raidettes, was established in 2012. In 2022, the Raidettes won the Grand Final in the Championship and reached the quarter-finals of the Women's Challenge Cup.
