Swillington is a Village situated approximately 5 miles East of Leeds City Centre. Historically it was a Coal Mining Community until the closure of Primrose Hill Pit in 1970. A Housing Estate now stands on what used to be the Colliery site. The Sports & Social Club may be variously referred to as it’s historic name of Swillington Miner’s Welfare Club or Swillington Miners Sports & Social Club but it still forms a central part of the Village Community.

There are a variety of different Events during the course of a typical month, including a performance by the Northern Swing Orchestra Big Band (first Sunday of the month at 3.30pm £7 admission), Bingo sessions twice a week, a Weekly Open Mic Jam Night (every Thursday from 7pm), a weekly Karaoke Night (hosted by Bruce & Carol), and two or three nights of Live Entertainment, as advertised herein and at the Clubhouse.
