The area falls within the Temple Newsam ward of Leeds City Council and Leeds East parliamentary constituency.
The small Whitkirk Lane End estate (which is situated between Colton Road and Colton Roundabout) is often considered more part of the Colton district than Whitkirk, because of its separation from Whitkirk via Selby Road, and its proximity to Colton Road.
