Hexham Middle School

Hexham Middle School, originally known as Queen Elizabeth County Junior Grammar School, was built in 1910 and designed by architects Oliver Leeson and Wood. The school features four symmetrical ranges arranged around a courtyard, with the north and south ranges extended on each side. The main entrance is located on the north side, which includes a wooden bellcote and flanking bays at the center. The building is single-storey, constructed from rubble with tiled roofs.

The north front showcases a central section with six windows and a parapet, flanked by two three-light bays. There are lower 1½ storey wings set back on either side, each featuring three dormers and terminating in single-storey extensions with three windows. Above the windows, there is a string course, and the windows themselves are three-light transomed casements, with a wide central entrance that has a label above it. The other facades display tall gabled and plain windows that alternate, including some with mullions and transoms. The south wing is extended with a series of roofs that step down on each side, ending in short arcades that lead to the lavatory pavilions on either side.
