context_page_description: Moortown is a suburb of Leeds, West Yorkshire, England in the LS17 postcode area. It is a civil parish and sits in the Moortown ward of Leeds City Council in the north east of the city.
  It is situated between Roundhay and Gledhow on the east and Weetwood on the west, with Chapel Allerton to the south, and Alwoodley to the north. It is synonymous with Moor Allerton, and institutions in the area use both names. Moortown lies in Leeds 17, which was reported to contain the most expensive housing area in Yorkshire and the Humber by The Times in 2007.
context_section_description: Moor Allerton District Centre is adjacent to the Moortown estate (west), north of the Ring Road and west of the junction with King Lane, which opened in 1982. It includes a public library.
  However it is mainly a shopping centre, with a large Sainsbury's, and a Homebase. It includes a public house, the King on the Lane, which up to 2019 was called the Penny Fun, whose name relates to the history of the area as follows. The word 'pen' comes from the Celtic for 'hill'. What is now Tunnel How Hill is visible from the Centre to the south-west. It was previously Pen-how-fyn, and a hamlet around what is now the Centre was Paenfynaen (where fynaen means settlement). Tunnel How Hill was referred to as Penny Fun in the 19th century and several houses in the vicinity used the name. There is a Penny Field nearby in Meanwood Park.
