Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Northgate, Elland. Until Huddersfield Road was constructed as a turnpike road, Northgate was part of the main road from Halifax to Huddersfield and Pontefract. The whitewashed building on the left was built as a house in 1689. It became the Rose and Crown, a coaching inn, in 1858, but this closed in 1914 and the building then became a warehouse until some time after 1968. It has since been a nightclub, but is now boarded up. It is built of stone, with a stone-slate roof. The plan is a two-storey hall with projecting cross-wings, the gable-ends of which face the road. The mullioned windows to the first-floor can be seen. All have string courses above and coped gables with kneelers. The north wing gable has a rainwater spout and semi-circular plaque reading 'TJD 1890' (the date of Thomas John Dobson's 21st birthday); it faces Dobson's yard For another photo see [1]
Next to it Joseph Dobson & Sons, Sweetmakers, are in a building comprising the original shop, a cottage and a three-storey part that contains offices and former shops. The workshops where the sweets are made are at the back in a cobbled yard up a passageway. In the yard there are also stables and a Tudor cottage. No.1 is a two-storey house of hammer-dressed stone with a stone slate roof. It is partly 17C but has a 19C front. The late 17C gable has five-light chamfered mullioned windows on each floor. |
