Nurses' Teaching Centre, Wall And Gate Piers

The Nurses' Teaching Centre is a house built in 1835, featuring an attached garden wall and gate piers. The structure is made of pebble-dashed masonry, with a rubble sandstone wall and iron gates. It is two storeys high and has five bays with a low plinth. The central entrance consists of a six-panel door flanked by three-pane sidelights and an overlight with patterned radial glazing, all set within a pedimented Tuscan porch. The windows are 12-pane sashes with projecting sills, and there are slightly elongated windows on the ground floor, along with a blocked window above the porch. A tall parapet with a band and flat coping conceals a low-pitched roof. To the right, there is a set-back addition featuring an elliptical carriage arch and parallel bands, which also hides lean-to additions on the right return. At the rear, there is a large 24-pane stair window. Inside, there are several six-panel doors with architraves that include angle paterae. The high wall to the north-west extends approximately 40 metres and has flat coping. The square-plan gate piers have low pyramidal caps, and the pair of gates features alternating standards, dogbars, and square principals topped with urn finials.
