Description
27 Little Russell Street is a former parochial school of St George's, Bloomsbury Way, now converted into flats. It was built between 1879 and 1880 by architect Joseph Peacock. The building features a yellow brick front with red brick bands, quoins, and some stone dressings, along with white-painted wooden windows. It has heavy plaster cornices above the ground and first floors and is three storeys tall. The design is asymmetrical with a three-bay composition in the Queen Anne style, where the left and central bays project and unite under a tall, shaped gable that has a central pilaster statue at the second-storey level. The entrance door is located to the right of the centre. The interior has not been inspected. This building is noted for being a well-preserved example of the later secular style of Joseph Peacock, who was a local resident and the architect for the parish of St George's, Bloomsbury.
