Leek is a market town and civil parish in the English county of Staffordshire. Positioned on the River Churnet, it is 10 miles north east of Stoke-on-Trent.

Most of the town is at or higher than 180 metres above sea level, and it is encircled by the countryside of the Staffordshire Moorlands, which is positioned on the southern uplands of the Pennines. It is the administrative base for the Staffordshire Moorlands District Council. The town was developed on the slope and crown of a hill, and it is at the base of the Peak District National Park. The town is, as a result, called the 'Gateway to the Peak District', as well as being frequently called the 'Queen of the Moorlands'. It has a long background of being a market town, with the right to host a weekly market and a yearly week-long fair being approved by King John in 1207. Lots of buildings dating from the Victorian period are left standing in the town, and many of these were designed by the architectural practice of the Sugdens, 'Sugden and Sons'.
