Leekbrook is a small settlement just outside the market town of Leek in the district of Staffordshire Moorlands, in the county of Staffordshire, England. Set in rolling countryside on the southern fringe of the Peak District, it feels rural but is closely linked to the amenities of Leek and the surrounding moorland landscapes.
The area has roots in the 18th–19th century industrialisation of the region, with transport routes, canals and former railway connections shaping local development; today the local economy mixes agriculture, small businesses and commuting to larger centres such as Stoke-on-Trent. Socially it is a small, community-focused place with strong ties into Leek’s market-town traditions, and it appeals to people who want village life within easy reach of outdoor recreation and local heritage.
