Carlton was previously part of Rothwell Urban District. Today it sits in the Rothwell ward of Leeds City Council and Elmet and Rothwell parliamentary constituency.
It is celebrated for its rhubarb growing, and is at the centre of the Rhubarb Triangle. Due to Carlton's rhubarb growing and farming heritage, the area has seen a recent influx of Eastern European migrants, who make a living working on the numerous farms.
Etymology.
The name of Carlton is first attested in the Domesday Book of 1086 as "Carlentone". As with the nearby example of West Carlton and East Carlton in Yeadon, the name comes from the Old Norse word "karla" (genitive plural of "karl" 'commoner, churl') and the Old English word "tūn" ('estate'). Thus it once meant 'estate owned by commoners'. The Old Norse form "karla" may be based on an earlier Old English name *"ceorla tūn", of the same meaning.
