Description

Temple Balsall School was built in 1867 and features a symmetrical design made of red brick with a machine-tiled roof. The building has two projecting gables and a central octagonal cupola. It is one storey high with attics and has flush casement windows that include mullions and transoms. The projecting bays are adorned with recessed round-arched porches, each with plaques at the first-floor level and steps leading up to them. The central plaque displays a shield within a cartouche, topped by a scrolled pediment.
