Description
St Albans School Hall Block is a building constructed in 1907 by Percival Blow. It is two storeys high and features six windows. The exterior is made of flint with random red and yellow bricks, and it has a red brick parapet with stone dressings. The building includes stepped buttresses with stone quoins, which are diagonal at the corners. There is a stone plinth with moulded coping above a brick lower plinth, similar to the Gatehouse.
The windows are in the Perpendicular style, with tracery on both floors; the first-floor windows have 4-centred arches, while the ground-floor windows are flat-arched. Stone panels are located between the ground and first-floor windows. A bridge at the first-floor level connects to another block to the north. The rear elevation features a cornice and a battlemented parapet, with stepped buttresses between the windows, which are all mullioned casements of two, three, and four lights, under hoodmoulds. The building has stone quoins at the angles.
The Abbey Gate and St Albans School buildings are part of a group.
