GV II

Houses with warehouses/workshops, now offices and workshops. c1790, converted c1980. Probably by John Kendall. Red brick, Flemish bond to Kendell Street facade, random and English bond to Dock Street, stone slate roof, 3-flue stack to left, Kendell Street. 3 storeys, 10 first-floor windows, the 2 on left blind; C20 flush wood frames, small-pane sashes, stone sills throughout, top-storey windows smaller. Ground floor, from right to left: blocked doorway, formerly No.30A, 2 windows, wide round-arched opening, No.32 with double doors, window, blocked doorway, door with overlight in plain wood surround (No.36), sash with margin lights, round-headed door with fanlight (No.38), 2 windows, 2 blind windows. Left return, Kendell Street: stone plinth, slightly recessed sashes with glazing bars, brick wedge-lintels, stone sills; continuous sill band to first and 2nd floors. Window spacing suggests that the Kendell Street facade was a town house but former central entrance blocked. INTERIOR: not inspected. HISTORICAL NOTE: probably built by the joiner John Kendall, one of the craftsmen involved in the building of workers' housing from 1780 onwards. He bought the field here and erected 18 back-to-backs in Kendell Street behind this range; he sold the remainder of the land to James Cooper in 1793 who built 16 blind-back houses, some against the rear of this block. The 1847 OS map shows the central entrance with step, forecourt garden wall and gateway on the east, Kendall (sic) Street side of No.38. (Fraser, D (Ed): A History of Modern Leeds: Manchester: 1980-: 89; Beresford, M: East End, West End: Leeds 1684-1842).
