Cemetery office at Philips Park Cemetery

The cemetery office at Philips Park Cemetery, built in 1867 by Paull and Ayliffe, is designed in an eclectic Gothic style. Constructed from coursed squared sandstone rubble, it features a steeply-pitched slate roof and has an irregular plan consisting of two parts. The building stands two storeys tall with a central tower and a high single-storey wing to the right, comprising three irregular bays.

The square tower on the left has diagonal buttresses and a segmental-headed doorway at the ground floor. Above the door is a cusped transomed lancet window, and the third stage of the tower includes a very thin looplight. The tower is topped with a foliated cornice and an ashlar stage that has corner shafts and inset clock faces, culminating in a tall pyramidal roof adorned with lucarnes and an apex finial.

To the left of the tower is a transomed window, while to the right is a transomed three-light window with a half-dormer above it featuring a cross-window. The gable chimney adds to the architectural detail. The right wing of the building has three cross-windows and a doorway with a cusped head, a tall hipped roof, and a four-bay return wall that includes two tall cross-windows rising into a hipped dormer, flanked by additional cross-windows.
