Description
2 Oxford Place is a mid-19th century shop, now used as offices, located in Leeds. The building is constructed of brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with stone detailing. It has a roof of small slates and a chimney set forward of the ridge on the right. It is two storeys high and comprises two bays. The entrance on the left has a pilastered doorcase with a cornice supported by narrow console brackets, leading to a recessed door with an overlight, approached by two steps. To the left of the entrance is a narrow gateway, likely a tunnel leading to the rear of the property. The shop window on the right has a pilastered surround with an entablature and cornice. The upper floor features two plate-glass sash windows with rubbed brick flat arches and a continuous sill band. The eaves are raised, with wooden gutter brackets. The interior has not been inspected. Dating evidence is comparable to that found at No. 1 Oxford Place.
