Description

The Macclesfield Detached Youth and Disability Information Bureau is a former school building dating from around 1860. It is constructed from coursed and squared rubble with a Welsh slate roof and features an asymmetrical two-storey design in the Tudor style. The main hall is located to the left and includes a doorway set in a slightly recessed porch bay at an angle, leading to a 4-centred arched doorway with a single light window above. To the right, there is a gable with a 3-light mullioned window on the ground floor, a 2-light window above it, and a lancet window at the apex. The hall range has paired 2-light mullioned and transomed windows in the center, flanked by 3-light mullioned and transomed windows beneath gables that have narrow lights in the apex. All windows are set in straight chamfered reveals with hoodmoulds. The axial stacks feature paired and triple chamfered shafts.
