It has a Wakefield WF3 postal address. It is mentioned as Carlentone in the 1086 Domesday Book. 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. There are also areas known as West Carlton and East Carlton to the north west of Leeds, near Leeds Bradford International Airport, Yeadon. External links{{Commons category|Carlton, Rothwell}}
