Description
Queen Elizabeth Grammar School is a grammar school built in 1881, with a minor addition from the early 20th century. It is constructed of yellow Farlesthorpe brick, featuring red brick decorative bands, ashlar dressings, and decorative tiled roofs. The building has a wooden shingled bellcote and three tall ribbed yellow brick ridge stacks, forming an H-plan layout.
The school is two stories high with a five-bay front. The left two bays and the right bay are advanced and have separate gables with plain bargeboards arranged in a lattice pattern. The left gable includes a wood shingled bellcote with arched timber framework and a tall spirelet. The central section has two sets of two-light glazing bar casements, with a taller two-light glazing bar casement to the left and a similar plain two-light window to the right. On the first floor, there are two adjacent central three-light glazing bar casements at the eaves, flanked by two two-light casements on the left and a single two-light casement on the right. The windows feature flat brick or ashlar heads with brick relieving arches above. Each gable has a single ashlar ventilation panel.
On the right side of the front, there is a six-panelled door with an overlight and sidelights, topped by a projecting gabled bay supported by four carved brackets. The left side front has a projecting gabled bay, partly obscured by an early 20th-century single-storey extension, which bears an inscribed ashlar panel stating "Erected AD 1881."
