Description



LEEDS

SE3033SW BOAR LANE
714-1/78/45 (South side)
19/02/75 No.29

GV II

Inn and storerooms, now bank. c1873, altered C20. Orange
brick, ashlar dressings, probably grey slate roof. Corner
building with 3-window elevation to Boar Lane, 4 windows to
Mill Hill and a curved window to the corner. Ornate Italianate
style. Modillion cornice, parapet missing, elaborate corner
pediment.
4 storeys. 1st-floor arcaded window arches with keyblocks,
pilasters and pilaster shafts with carved capitals, Venetian
window on corner. 2nd-floor 2-light round-arch windows with
pilaster shafts in round-arch openings with decorative
cast-iron tympanum, continuous carved impost and moulded sill
cornice. 3rd-floor 2-light elliptical-arched windows with
pilaster shafts and cable mould label over, moulded string at
sill level. Ground floor: C20 bank facade to corner, original
rusticated masonry and pilasters with segmental arch window
and round arch carriageway far right.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
Built as the Saracen's Head public house, William Booth and
Co., victualler. The design of the pilaster strip far left
matches those on Nos 24-28 (qv), suggesting that the same
architect was involved but the use of the building required a
quite different building style. Parapet removed since 1975.
(Directories of Leeds: 1872-1875; Insurance map of Leeds:
1886-).
