Where is this 1815 date located?

This ornate date seems to state 1815. What building is it on? Clue: it is in LS1.
I had thought the date was 1885 but on seeing the way an 1869 appears at the other end of the frontage on Google Street View I'm now sure the date is 1815 (which I've now found is the start year of the business that originally owned the building). The building was built in 1869 which accounts for that date. The photo was taken on July 14 2016. Edit on July 18 2016. I've just noticed that in the photo caption I've put 1885 and not the correct 1815 but I do not seem able to edit the caption.
