LEEDS

SE23NE OTLEY ROAD, Far Headingley 714-1/6/663 (East side) Nos.114-120 (Even) and attached wall

GV II

Terrace of 4 houses with side wall to Hollin Road. Dated 1885. Red brick and buff faience, probably the product of the Burmantofts pottery, then Wilcock and Co., grey slate roof. An 8-bay facade, 2 storeys with attics and basements, each house of 2 bays, in elaborate Jacobean style and symmetrical overall: d,w,d,w,w,d,w,d with a single-storey bay right. Each house has a panelled door, the upper part glazed, a 3-pane overlight, in a moulded round arch with scrolled keystone; a window to the side has leaded panes, in a similar surround, far right (No.114) a moulded panel with raised lettering, 'AD 1885'. 6-light semicircular bay windows to ground floor have joggled voussoirs and parapet with relief strapwork pattern and corner brackets with dragons and griffins in high relief. Mullion and transom windows throughout, of 1, 2 and 4 lights to first floor. Moulded string courses enclose original rainwater pipes. An elaborate scrolled gable with 3-light window and segmental pediment with ball finials and a dormer window of 2 or 4 lights to each house. INTERIOR: not inspected but likely to contain original tiling, fireplaces, etc. SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: boundary wall at S end attached to house, approx 30m long, 2.5m high with ball finials, dropping to approx 1.5m at Otley Road corner, ball finial missing; towards the rear (Hollin Mount) the wall is ramped down and the E end is rebuilt. HISTORICAL NOTE: between 1879 and 1884 James Holroyd transformed the pottery business of Wilcock and Co and in 1880 he commissioned Maurice Bingham Adams (a London architect and technical editor of The Building News) to design features for houses to show off the potential use of Burmantofts faience; in 1883 Alfred Waterhouse designed the new Yorkshire College, now the University, and an important partnership was made between him and the Burmantofts Company (so called from 1888). This row of houses is likely to have been built to exhibit the Burmantofts products, after James Holroyd came to live in Headingley.

Bradford .. and Leeds ..: 1984-: 9).
