Description
The Former Fish Street Day Schools is a charity school built in 1871, designed by architect Samuel Musgrave of Hull. The building is constructed of brick with ashlar dressings and features blue brick decoration, topped with a slate roof and shouldered coped gables. It is designed in the Venetian Gothic Revival style and has brick rebated eaves.
The structure is two storeys high and consists of three bays. On the right side, there is a projecting two-storey porch with a gable finial and a checkerwork gable peak. This porch includes two round-headed traceried windows with an impost band, and above them, a single round window. Below, there is a round-arched recess with a hoodmould that contains a pair of round-arched doors, featuring a central shaft and tympana with plate tracery. The main tympanum is decorated with blue brick and has a central roundel dated 1871.
Between the floors, there is a stone band with moulded edging that is inscribed "Fish Street Day Schools." On the left side, there is a block with a gable that contains a round-arched four-light window with plate tracery, and to the right, a small round-arched window. The ground floor is partially obscured by the external stairs of the former Grammar School.
