South Hampstead High School

South Hampstead High School is a house that has been converted into a school, located on a corner site with its entrance facing Maresfield Gardens. Built around 1883 by J.J. Stevenson, likely for store magnate Frank Debenham, the building features red and yellow brick with terracotta dressings. It has tiled gabled roofs, dormers, and tall brick chimney stacks with moulded brick patterns and cornices. The structure is three storeys high with an attic and has irregular fenestration. The entrance front consists of three bays, with a central recessed bay that includes a doorway approached by steps with cast-iron railings. Above the doorway is a wooden first-floor balcony supported by turned balusters and a large central shaped bracket. The flanking bays feature Flemish gables, with the right bay displaying a cartouche in the gable and the left bay having a chimney rising from the ground floor, adorned with an enriched terracotta plaque. Additionally, there is a full-height bay window set diagonally across the angle. The Fitzjohn's Avenue front showcases a full-height canted bay. The interior has not been inspected. Historically, the building was originally known as Oakwood Hall and has connections to the Oakwood Property Company owned by Debenham and Sir Edwin Lutyens, who was engaged in 1908 to make alterations described as a "terraced shelter," which are no longer visible. From the 1950s until the late 1980s, the building was used as a Territorial Army Volunteer Reserve centre.
