Harvest House
GV II
Textile warehouse, subsequently shops. 1839, by Edward
Walters, for Richard Cobden; altered. Red brick in Flemish
bond with sandstone dressings (roof concealed). Rectangular
plan at right-angles to street. Italian palazzo style. A 6-bay
facade formerly 4 storeys with basement and attic (the attic
probably a later C19 addition or alteration), but the basement
and ground floor altered as a high single-storey shop front;
the surviving upper floors have rusticated quoins to the
corners and to the inner sides of the outer bays up to 2nd
floor, a band over the 3rd floor, a prominent modillioned
cornice, and an attic storey with parapet. All the windows are
segmental-headed recessed sashes, those at 1st floor of the
outer bays under segmental stone lintels with triple
keystones, the recesses of the 4-bay centre carried up from
1st to 2nd floor (giving the impression of a giant pilastered
arcade), and the heads of all the 2nd floor windows linked by
stilted hoodmoulds with triple keystones. Most of the windows
of the main floors have margin panes, and the attic has 6-pane
sashes in square recesses with brick dentils. History: first
work by Edward Walters in this city, and probably the first
palazzo-inspired warehouse design.
