Full Description

Houses, Nos. 35 and 37, were designed by J. B. and W. Atkinson for Mr. Benjamin Hopper in 1845 and 1847; although built separately they form a uniform mirror pair (Brierley, Leckenby and Keighley).

No. 35 retains its original pilastered door-case. The plan of No. 35 shows the parlour and kitchen on the ground floor, and also a scullery, privy, etc. in the rear wing. There were only two bedrooms on the first floor, though the frontage is only a little narrower than that of No. 31 (298). On plan No. 37 is similar to No. 35 (but reversed), though there are three bedrooms on the first floor. The cost was 220 each.
