Windmill Inn

Linton is an affluent village 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south west of Wetherby, West Yorkshire, England and in the City of Leeds metropolitan borough. The village is situated between Wetherby and Sicklinghall, on the River Wharfe. Collingham lies immediately to the south on the other side of the river. There is no longer any break in between Linton and the Western edge of Wetherby, effectively making it difficult to make a distinction between parts of the two areas.

The village has one pub, The Windmill Inn on Main Street, there are no shops, no schools and no church. Wetherby golf club is situated in Linton. The historic Grade II listed Wood Hall Hotel and Spa (Hand Picked Hotels) is situated on the outskirts of the village, this has function rooms and health club facilities. The village has a small village hall with a car park and tennis courts.
