Garden Studio And Walls With Gate Piers To Headingley Terrace

The garden studio and walls with gate piers to Headingley Terrace in Leeds were built around 1840. This structure is made of ashlar and coursed stone, topped with a slate roof. The garden building is located approximately 5 meters northwest of No. 5 Headingley Road and No. 2 Cumberland Road, which are part of the west end of Headingley Terrace. It is a small, single-storey building featuring a central French window with a corniced hood supported by console brackets, flanked by tall windows. Angle pilasters support an entablature with a moulded cornice and a blocking course that has a raised center, leading to a hipped roof with a central light.

The walls surrounding Headingley Terrace on the west, south, and east sides are about 2 meters high and 175 meters long overall, with shallow pedimented coping stones. There are three sets of gate piers: one on Cumberland Road features a narrow gateway with a ramped stone lintel and a wider carriage entrance to the terrace with square pedimented piers; a similar set of piers is found at the Grosvenor Road entrance. The building is believed to have originally been constructed as an artist's studio.
