Facade only survives. 4 storeys with attic, 8 bays: wide 3-window entrance in bay 4 flanked by 2-window bays and, far right, the Chambers entrance 1-window wide. Pilaster strips at corners and between bays rise to a modillion eaves cornice and parapet. Large rusticated round-arch doorway centre in a slightly projecting bay with paired pilasters and tripartite round arches, pierced balcony parapet at 1st and 2nd floors, the 1st-floor balcony is carried across the facade on large projecting curved stone brackets; moulded frieze over 2nd floor, gabled dormer. Right entrance is segmental-arched, date plaque above, 'MDCCCXCI'; at eaves a small turret with octagonal roof. Fenestration: large round-arched windows to ground floor; 2-light mullion and transom windows in moulded architraves to upper floors, lower part of 1st- and 2nd-floor mullions removed, the upper part a small Jacobean-type fluted Ionic column. Dormer windows front rebuilt roof with moulded stack left. INTERIOR: not inspected. Alfred Waterhouse, the principal architect for the Prudential Assurance Company, developed an important partnership with the Leeds Fireclay Company (then Wilcock and Co) of Burmantofts following his work on the Yorkshire College building in 1883 and from that date his designs use their terracotta products.
