Description
The Former Huddersfield Infirmary, built in 1831, is an important architectural work attributed to either architect John Oates or Joseph Kaye. This two-storey building is constructed of ashlar and features a hipped slate roof. It has a moulded eaves cornice and a blocking course, along with a continuous sill band. The façade includes nine ranges of sash windows with glazing bars. The entrance boasts a giant tetrastyle Greek Doric temple frontispiece, accessed by a flight of nine steps with flanking dies. The central three window ranges have moulded frames, and the door is adorned with an Egyptian surround. A lamp is mounted on an ornamental cast iron bracket.
Inside, there is a stone cantilevered staircase with a cast iron balustrade.
