Description
English Martyrs Presbytery is an early 20th-century building designed in a free Art-and-Craft Tudor style. It features bright red brick with stone bands and a tall, tiled roof that has an interrupted gable end facing the road. The building has three storeys and irregular window placement. On the second floor, there are three closely-set windows, with the middle one being shorter to fit beneath the cresting of an ogee lead roof above a half-octagonal stone oriel on the first floor, which is flanked by windows of varying sizes. On the ground floor, there is a wide window with mullions and transoms on the right, and on the left, a half-glazed door with sidelights set within a Tudor arched entrance that features many-chamfered brick and stone alternating voussoirs. Flanking buttresses support a label moulding that is raised in the center to hold stone relief portraits of two martyrs. The top gable includes a wide ogee-headed cusped panel and a final with an ogee stone cap.
