Wesleyan Methodist College, Headingley, near Leeds, 1869. 'A new college for the education of students intending to enter the ministry of the Wesleyan Methodist Connection...The building was opened last September...The architects are Messrs. Wilson and Wilcox, of Bath, and of King William-street, Strand. The design...is a good example of the fine Early Gothic of the twelfth century...The building has accommodation for forty students, but is so arranged that twenty more can be admitted. The entrance-hall, beneath the tower, has the library to its right hand and the board-room to its left; behind there is the main corridor, with eight of the students' day-rooms: in the left wing are four lecture-rooms, one of which is spacious and lofty, with an open timbered roof and traceried windows; the right wing contains a large dining-hall, with kitchens, housekeeper's rooms, and the governor's apartments. The houses for the professors are detached, but similar in their architecture to the main building. The tower is 70ft. high, with a conical summit; it is of Meanwood sandstone, with bars of red Mansfield. The contractor was Mr. T. Whiteley...; the cost of the whole, including the professors' dwellings, was £17, 000'. From "Illustrated London News", 1869.
