Description
The Roundhay Fox is a row of five cottages that have been converted into a restaurant. Built around 1800, the building has undergone alterations in the 20th century. It is constructed from coursed squared gritstone featuring herringbone tooling and has a hipped stone slate roof. The main range consists of two storeys and five bays, with the central bay featuring a pediment. The left end has a taller bay, and there is a stable or barn range on the left side, facing Mansion Lane, which is also two storeys tall and has five unequal bays.
The main range has had its entrances altered, with 20th-century porches and signboards. Original doorways with tie-stone jambs are now blocked and can be seen to the left and right of the centre. The windows on the left and centre mainly feature wedge lintels above three-pane casements, while the right end has a four-pane sash and the far left has a taller sash with glazing bars. There are ridge stacks located on the left and centre.
On the left side, there is likely an earlier barn with a large cart arch, quoined jambs, and a flat voussoired arch. It has three square windows on the left and a side-sliding sash on the right, although the roof on the left end has collapsed. At the rear, single-storey kitchen buildings have been added, which face a yard and feature a small pediment with a blocked circular light in the tympanum, along with two other lights on the first floor. The interior has not been inspected.
