North Range Of Quadrangle At Rossall School

The North Range of the quadrangle at Rossall School was built in 1853 by architect E G Paley and altered in 1897 by the same firm, now known as H J Austin and E G Paley Junior. The building features a single storey with two-storey gables at each end and a crenellated turret on the east side. The rest of the structure is two storeys high, showcasing brick and ashlar gabled dormers. It includes a three-storey gabled projection and two first-floor oriel windows, one rectangular and corbelled out, and the other canted and parapetted, supported by buttresses. There are two types of windows: one with paired cusped lancets and the other a two-light window with geometrical bar tracery. The doorway is two-centred with moulded jambs.
