Leeds North was a borough constituency in the city of Leeds, West Yorkshire, which returned one Member of Parliament to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, elected by the first past the post voting system.
The constituency was created for the 1885 general election, when the Redistribution of Seats Act 1885 replaced the three-seat Leeds constituency by five single-seat constituencies: Leeds Central, Leeds East, Leeds North, Leeds South and Leeds West.
Leeds North was abolished for the 1955 general election.
