Sir John Offley Primary School

Sir John Offley Primary School is a school built in 1875 and 1887. It features coursed sandstone blocks resting on a high chamfered plinth, with ashlar dressings and quoins, and has machine tiled roofs adorned with ornamental cresting. The building has an asymmetrical, multiform plan in the 17th-century Vernacular style.

The single-storey hall and classrooms are illuminated by a large 8-light mullion window in a projecting gable on the left side, and by two gabled half-dormers on the right. Beneath the half-dormers are two lower, hip-roofed porches added in 1887. The lower range against the right-hand gable end also dates from 1887. There are two prominent tapering external stacks with round shafts and moulded capping, one on the main range and one on the 1887 addition. The principal entrance is located at the rear through a mid-20th-century red brick addition.

The school was originally endowed by the will of Sir John Offley of Madeley Manor, who died in 1658, and the 19th-century building was financed by Hungerford, Baron of Crewe.
