26, Castle Park

26 Castle Park is a former service wing to No. 24, now part of the Storey Institute on Meeting House Lane. It was built in the early 19th century and has undergone some alterations in the 20th century. The building is constructed of sandstone rubble with quoins and features a hipped slate roof, which no longer has chimney stacks. It has a double-depth plan, is two storeys high, and consists of one bay, with the doorway located on the left side. All openings have raised plain surrounds. The first-floor windows are paired and contain 12-pane sashes. The left-hand return wall features a window on each floor; the first-floor window is sashed with glazing bars and has a blocked loading doorway to its left, situated near the back entrance to the Storey Institute. Historically, the building served as a drawing office for the architects Paley and Austin when they occupied No. 24 Castle Park from around 1870 until approximately 1940.
