Description
Bridge End House is a house and offices built in 1833, likely designed by William Morley Stears, a gas engineer from Leeds. This building is the only remaining structure from the gas works he designed and executed. It features a limestone ashlar exterior with coursed squared limestone on the sides and rear, and a Welsh slate parapeted roof. The building has a central stone stack at the front with a pair of tall hexagonal clay pots, and an ashlar stack on the right side.
The structure has a curved front that angles towards the street and a projecting wing at the rear. It is two stories tall with a three-window range. On the first floor, there are three 3/6-pane sash windows in plain reveals with stone cills. The ground floor has two 6/6-pane sash windows in similar reveals. A 20th-century glazed door is located in the center, featuring an overlight with marginal glazing in a plain reveal. The building is supported by a deep tooled ashlar plinth, with a plat band over the ground floor, a frieze, and a heavy projecting unmoulded band at the eaves, topped with a blocking course. The right side of the building has two 3/6-pane sashes on the first floor and two 6/6-pane sashes on the ground floor. The interior has not been inspected.
