252, Anlaby Road

No. 252 Anlaby Road is a house that has been converted into offices, built around 1870 and later altered in the late 20th century. It features yellow brick with ashlar dressings, granite columns, and roofs that are hipped and gabled, covered with slate and topped with a cruciform ridge stack. The building is designed in the Gothic Revival style and includes a plinth, a first-floor band, and machicolated eaves. It stands two storeys high with attics and has a three-window range.

Most of the windows are plain sashes. The central gable projects and has pointed-arched bargeboards, a collar, and a finial. On the first floor, there is a tripartite sash window framed by brick pilasters and a lintel band, with a segmental pointed sash above it. Below, there is a canted hipped brick bay window with a bracketed sill and a central two-light sash supported by a ringed granite column.

To the left, there is a set-back entrance bay featuring a first-floor through-eaves dormer with a single sash window, bargeboard, collar, and finial. Below this is a projecting stone porch with central late 20th-century glazed doors, flanked by narrow pointed arches supported by granite columns. Above the porch is a textured panel with a cusped blind overlight, flanked by small round windows. The lean-to roof has decorative eaves cresting.

To the right, there is a single bay with a triangular stone oriel window on a bracket supported by a granite column, along with two plain sashes that have a central ringed shaft. The steeply pitched hipped roof extends through the eaves, and below are two pointed-arched windows that have been reglazed in the late 20th century, featuring bracketed sills.
