Constantine Building, University of Teesside

The Constantine Building at the University of Teesside is a technical college constructed in 1929-1930 by architects G.R. Dawbarn and S. Easten, with the builder being S. Easten from Newcastle. The building is made of Portland ashlar with a granite plinth and features a marble and granite door surround. It has Welsh slate roofs and is designed in a restrained Classical style, featuring an E-plan layout with a short two-storey rear middle wing.

The building is two storeys high with an attic and consists of three, five, three, five, and three bays. The central three-bay entrance is deeply recessed and has renewed glazed doors set in a broad plain surround, with small renewed windows on either side. The building has renewed sash windows located in shallow two-storey shouldered-headed recesses, with vertically-channelled aprons between the floors. The attic storey features similar windows and a plain sill band. The roof is hipped with roof lights over the center and has deeply overhanging eaves supported by curved brackets and a moulded coved cornice. The right return has 14 bays, while the left return has 15 bays, with the two right end bays being blind on the ground floor.

Inside, the building has been altered but still retains two dogleg staircases with closed strings and plain masonry balustrades topped with curved handrails.
