| Title | 16 and 18 Upper York Street, Wakefield |
| Description | 16 and 18 Upper York Street, Wakefield. Pair of early 19th century attached cottages.
16 and 18 Upper York Street formerly had an English Heritage listed building designation (EH UID 446039). The description is presented below:
'Early 19th century. No 16 is of two storey and basement, three windows. Stucco with incised lines. Low pitched slated roof with centre and end ridge stacks. Recessed sash windows with glazing bars have stone cills. Central six panel door with oblong fanlight in stone architrave with console bracketed cornice and pediment. No 18 is a small pent roofed cottage attached to the rear of No 16. On left are two eight pane sash windows with glazing bars and a six panel door. Hand made soft red brick and slated roof'.
(Former English Heritage listed building description. Date listed 01/02/1979. http://lbonline.englishheritage.org.uk/BuildingDetailsForm.aspx?id=446038andsearch=y. Web site accessed 08/09/2006).
16 and 18 Upper York Street was delisted in 2007. The reasons were:
'An early 19th century residence that has suffered change of use and consequent extensive unsympathetic alteration apparently carried out in the late 20th century without listed building consent. This has severely degraded and compromised the building's historic character and resulted in the loss of nearly all original interior features'.
