Description
The building is a school hall located to the north of Highfield Junior School, constructed in 1911 by G H Widdows, the architect for Derbyshire County Council. It is made of brown brick with pebbledash above the sill height, and features stone and tile dressings. The hall has a steeply pitched plain tile roof with wide overhanging eaves, and a large stepped external brick chimney stack on the north side.
The structure is single storey and consists of three bays. The east elevation includes a low porch with a 5-light casement window above, set in a segment-headed blind recess with a stone keyblock. The west elevation features a central 3-light window in a similar recess, flanked by smaller single-light casements. The south elevation has three 3-light dormer windows. All the windows are small pane casements. This hall was built as part of a group with the Highfield Infant and Junior School.
