Description

The Royal Hospital School, built between 1925 and 1933 by Buckland and Heywood, is a house made of red brick with hanging red tiles on the first floor and a central band. It features a hipped dark red plain tiled roof and external chimney stacks on the returns, which have stone offset brackets above the eaves. The building has two storeys and a three-window range of small paned vertically sliding sashes with horns and moulded surrounds, along with angled bays on the ground floor. The central entrance consists of a recessed six-panelled door with a moulded surround and a flat canopy supported by brackets. Attached to the front corners are red brick walls with a moulded brick plinth and stone coping, which extend through the staff accommodation houses of the School. To the east, the walls curve towards the road, supported by rectangular and square panelled brick columns that lead to the entrance of the School grounds. There are round-headed gateways with full-height panelled gates in the walls.
