Title A name given to the resource Giles House, Lower Finkil Street - CBC03989 Description An account of the resource Grade II* House. Dated 1655. Hammer-dressed stone, stone slate roof. 2 storeys. Double pile on plan. 3 gabled south front of 3 rooms and 3 bays. Drip course, coped gables with kneelers and ball finials. All are double chamfered mullioned windows, those to ground floor having transoms. The outer bays retain their original 12 lights with a 6-light window over to 1st bay and a 5-light window to 3rd bay. The central bay has an 8-light window, formerly of 12 lights now reduced and C20 doorway in the original position replacing a C19 doorway with monolithic jambs. Over is an inscribed stone possibly re-set and re-used from the original door reading '1655 TN' (Timothy Netherwood). The first floor of the central bay has an 8-light window with king mullion with a columbarium to gable. Between the 1st 2 bays is an arch-headed light with spandrels now forming surround to a coat of arms carved in relief. 2 stacks to ridge. Decorative modern glazing with several engraved panes to 1st floor. One records 'Brighouse New Church Consecrated September 24th 1831'. Another 'Jon h Carter came to Giles House on May Day 1770 The Lord is my Shepherd Therefore do I lack nothing.' The right hand return wall has drip course and preserves double chamfered mullioned windows of 7 lights to ground floor (rear kitchen) and 4 lights (one mullion removed) to 1st floor. Rear has 3 similar gables. The 1st bay lintel with gable stack (to kitchen). The 2nd and 3rd bays were probably reconstructed over a single storey aisle or outshut to provide additional accommodation in the 1st quarter C18. Central bay has recessed chamfered mullioned windows with square reveals of 6 lights to ground floor and 4 lights to 1st floor. Situated at junction of the 1st 2 bays is doorway with monolithic jambs and semi-circular arch with projecting dropped keystone. Set within the gable is rectangular stone with oval depression and architrave inscribed 'MG 1723' (Michael Gibson). 3rd bay has 2 similar windows to 1st floor with hoodmoulds and 2 3-light flat faced mullioned windows to ground floor which has doorway with monolithic jambs. Attached is 2-storey range formerly connected with textile manufacture. At its junction with the house is doorway with monolithic jambs with taking-in door over. Ground floor has recessed flat faced mullioned windows with square reveals of 3 and 5 lights. Different masonry to 1st floor which has 2 3-light flat faced mullioned windows. This was probably a single storey outshut in the mid C18 raised to 2 storeys in the C19. South front was probably 2 storeys originally perhaps contemporary with the 1723 rebuilding of the rear of house and preserves 2 double framed chamfered mullioned windows with square reveals of 3 lights to 1st floor. Attached to 3rd bay south front is garden wall of hammer-dressed stone, with stone capping in which is doorway with monolithic jambs and semi-circular arch, the voussoirs of which are slightly recessed to the inner edge with prominent dropped keystone inscribed 'SSM 1811'. Interior: Fairly featureless except to 1st bay ground floor room which was parlour and has fireplace with a shallow arched lintel and chamfered surround, carved wooden overmantel bears the date 1655 and is decorated with 4 panels of lozenges set horizontally with an arcaded central panel with floral motif. Over is a plaster frieze formed of a double arcade with pilasters the panels of which have fruit and foliage enrichments. G. Hepworth, Brighouse, its scenery and antiquities, (Haifax,1885), p.16. D.
