Description

The 1892 extension of this railway hotel was designed by architect William Bell, then the principal architect for the North Eastern Railway Company. The Bedford Lemere daybook also records that Burmantofts Co., a pottery firm from Leeds, were involved in the construction of the building, almost certainly creating the decorative architectural terracotta tiles and fittings used in the interior. The company later merged with others and was then more properly known as The Leeds Fireclay Co. Ltd.
