Description
Nos. 1-7 Harold Avenue is a group of four houses built in 1908, designed by Percy Houfton for the Brodsworth Colliery Company. The houses are roughcast with a later cement-tile roof and stand two storeys high, featuring a total of eight windows on the first floor. The design is nearly symmetrical, with the right half set lower and the end houses topped with gables. All original windows are casements with glazing bars.
No. 7, on the left, has a doorway with rock-faced, stone-quoined jambs and a hoodmould that steps over a lintel decorated with a shield featuring a cross. To the left of this doorway is a three-light window, and to the right is a four-light window, both with tile dripmoulds. The first floor has two three-light windows beneath the gable, also with a tile dripcourse.
No. 5, adjacent to No. 7, features a similar doorway with a lozenge on the lintel under a peaked hoodmould, flanked by four-light windows on the ground floor and three-light windows on the first floor. No. 3 mirrors No. 5 but is set lower. No. 1, on the right, retains its original door surround, but all its windows have been altered. The houses have swept eaves and corniced end stacks that are corbelled from the gables, along with three matching ridge stacks on the party walls. This group is part of the Woodlands colliery village and is noted as the least altered example of its type.
