Royd House, Grade I listed building in Hale, Greater Manchester
The structure features a semi-circular front facade made of Portland red stone and Lancashire brick with a concrete flat roof and y-shaped layout.
Architect Edgar Wood designed and constructed this residence between 1914 and 1916 as his personal home after relocating from his previous residence in Middleton.
The geometric patterns displayed in the entrance tiled panel extend throughout the interior doors, reflecting design elements from Wood's travels in Spain, Tunisia, and Persia.
The property incorporates a circular driveway with brick gateways on each side, providing vehicle access while maintaining the rounded architectural motif.
The living spaces are positioned at the rear of the building, creating a contrast between the flat garden-facing wall and the curved street-facing front.
