Hawksworth, Leeds
Hawksworth is a small, early twentieth-century council estate in the Kirkstall ward in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. It is situated on a hill between West Park and Horsforth and is circled by Butcher Hill, the A65 and Vesper Road. Hawksworth lies within the LS5 Kirkstall postcode area and is commonly known as ''The Hawk'', ''The Hawky'' or ''The Hawky Estate''. Etymology The name ''Hawksworth'' appears to have been given to the estate as recently as its foundation in the twentieth century, and is not covered by the relevant English Place Name Society surveys.

Hawksworth, Guiseley
Hawksworth is a village west of the town of Guiseley in West Yorkshire, England. It is located to the south of Menston and north of Baildon. Etymology The name of Hawksworth is first attested in a charter of 1030 in the phrase ''on Hafeces-weorðe'', and then in the Domesday Book of 1086 in the form ''Hauochesuurde'' and variants thereof. The Old English word ''hafoces'' meant 'hawk's', but the word is thought in this place-name to have been a personal name; ''worð'', meanwhile, means 'enclosure'. Thus the name once meant 'enclosure belonging to Hafoc'. History Hawksworth was historically a township in the large ancient parish of Otley in the West Riding of Yorkshire. It became a separate civil parish in 1866. In 1937 the civil parish was abolished and merged into the new Aireborough Urban District. In 1974 Aireborough was itself abolished and absorbed into the City of Leeds Metropolitan District in the new county of West Yorkshire. It currently falls within the Guis ...
