Description

Chapel Allerton Primary School, formerly known as Chapeltown Board School, was built in 1878 and altered and extended in the late 20th century. Designed by Richard Adams for the Leeds School Board, the school is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof. It is a single-storey building with a basement, arranged in a U-shape with seven unequal bays, where the outer gabled bays project. The design reflects the Gothic Revival style, showcasing the architect's distinctive use of brick ornamentation.

The entrances, likely for girls', infants', and boys', are located in bays 2, 5, and 7, each featuring ornate cusped windows. The central entrance includes a pinnacled dormer with a two-light window above. The building has mullion and transom windows with cusped lights; bay 1 contains two two-light windows separated by a chimney breast that displays a stone plaque with a raised pattern inscribed with 'LEEDS/ BOARD/ SCHOOL 1878'. The steep gable is adorned with moulded brick details, shaped kneelers topped with vase finials, and a tall moulded stack with stone caps. Additionally, three tall stacks with linked circular shafts are positioned along the ridge. The interior has not been inspected. Richard Adams served as the architect for the Leeds School Board from 1873 to 1886.
