Description

The lodge, gate piers, and flanking walls to Oxley Hall, now part of the University of Leeds, were built between 1860 and 1865, likely designed by architect John Simpson for Henry Oxley. The structure is made of coursed gritstone and ashlar, featuring ashlar piers and a grey slate roof with decorative bands. It has two storeys with attics and a cruciform plan, with quoins at the corners. The door and window surrounds are plain, with plate-glass sash windows. The building is topped with tall, ornate Dutch-style gables and has a central square ridge stack. The interior has not been inspected. There is an attached curved wall approximately 1.5 meters high to the west, with inner and outer pairs of gate piers that display banded rustication, a cornice, and banded ball finials.
