Description

SJ 46 SW SAIGHTON C.P. SAIGHTON LANE (North west side)

3/179 Saighton Primary School and attached railings

II

School, 1862, for the 2nd Marquis of Westminster, probably by Edward Hodkinson. Brown brick in English bond on weathered sandstone plinth, with red tile roof. Stone ovolo mullioned windows, some also transomed, with bold hoodmoulds; double-ovolo reveals and heads to windows and doors. A simple open belfry of sandstone with a taller brick chimney, attached, is by the school door; the bell was transferred here on demolition of the Church of England school at Handbridge in 1862. Louvred ventilator under a short, square spire at junction of roofs. An extension to the school, probably 1900's, right, with details in keeping, is of harder red brick. Cast iron railings to playground on sandstone plinth; the top rail is double, with cross-bracing. Cf. the railing to Aldford School.
