Description
The building is the Superintendent's House, now part of the registrar's office, constructed in 1893 in a Free Tudor style. It is made of brick with ashlar dressings and features a graduated slate roof with brick end stacks. The building has a double-depth plan and is two storeys high with an attic, presenting a symmetrical three-window range on the front facade.
The exterior includes an ashlar plinth, flush bands at the ground floor, and a top cornice. The entrance features a four-centred arch leading to a recessed porch with a key, foliate spandrels, and a dripstone above a panel with a dated cartouche and flanking scrolls. There are low paired iron gates, and the inner entrance has a segmental-headed design with a half-glazed door and a wall lantern. To the left, there are two 2-light basement windows with grilles.
On the ground floor, recessed bow windows are flanked by fluted pilasters between ovolo-moulded cross-mullioned windows, all with dripstones. The first floor has a cross-mullioned window with a keyed architrave and cornice, positioned between two sets of 2+2-light transomed windows with a king mullion. The attic features a small 2-light flat-roofed dormer situated between hipped dormers with canted angles, all of which have ovolo-mullioned designs with leaded glazing. Scrolled wrought-iron gutter brackets and rainwater heads with a date and square downspouts are also present. At the rear, there is a gabled wing.
Inside, the building contains eight-panel doors and a staircase with square balusters.
