SE2835NE CUMBERLAND ROAD, Headingley 714-1/65/741 (East side) Boundary wall with gate piers and gates to Spring Hill and Elmfield
GV II
Boundary wall with 3 gateways and 2 pairs of gates. Mid C19. Coursed gritstone walling, wrought-iron gates. The walling along the road side extends approx 100m as the garden wall to Spring Hill (qv), it is approx 3m high and steps up with the hill slope, the coping is rounded and part of the wall close to the house has been lowered; at the N end it returns eastwards to link with the former coach house (qv) to rear of Spring Hill, approx 15m. At the S end the 2 drives to Elmfield (qv) and Spring Hill are also flanked by lower walling for approx 20m. Gateways: at the N end of the roadside wall the entrance to the rear yard of Spring Hill is flanked by walling with stepped ashlar pyramid capstones; at the S end of the roadside wall the left gateway has similar piers and a pair of gates with bars, dog bars and roundels to lock rail. The right gateway is earlier in style, it has fine monolithic square piers with deep cornice and shallow pyramid capstones and paired gates with 'X' braces below the lock rail, 'O' above and depressed top rail with leaf finials to bars. The low flanking walls have chamfered ashlar coping and a short stretch of railing in similar style, to right the wall is approx 2m high with gabled coping. The arrangement of walling and driveways suggests that the grounds of Elmfield originally extended to the road edge and were sold off as development for Spring Hill. Included for group value with Spring Hill, No.14 (qv) and Nos 12 & 13 Elmfield (qv).
