Description
5 and 6 Queen Square are two houses, now part of Leeds Metropolitan University, built in the early 19th century and later altered in the 19th century. They were designed by John and George Bischoff. The buildings are made of red brick in Flemish bond with stone details and have slate roofs. Each house has three storeys and two bays, with the entrance located in the left bay and a straight join between the two.
No. 5 features a four-panel door with a fanlight set in a stone panelled architrave with a cornice. The windows are sashes with stone sills and wedge lintels, with plate glass on the ground floor, four panes on the first floor, and possibly original glazing bars on the second floor, consisting of twelve panes on the left and sixteen panes on the right. The house has gutter brackets and end stacks.
No. 6 is similar but includes console brackets and a deep cornice above the entrance. The front wall of No. 6 extends to the ridge line of No. 7, which is at right angles to it. The buildings are part of the development by the Bischoff brothers, which began on the northwest side of the Square in 1806 and continued until 1822.
