Description
No. 21 Binney Street is a former church school and hall built between 1889 and 1891 by Alfred Waterhouse, as part of his design for King's Weigh House Church, which is now the Ukrainian Catholic Cathedral on Duke Street. The building is constructed of hard red brick with buff terracotta dressings and features tiled roofs, showcasing a mixed Romanesque-Gothic style.
It stands two tall storeys above a basement and has dormers in a steeply pitched roof, along with a four-storey tower. The façade is five windows wide, with the main three windows grouped to the right. There is a gabled porch to the right and a secondary round-arched entrance in a gabled bay to the left, which adjoins the tower. The school room features large mullioned-transomed three-light windows, with three-light windows above. The tower includes single and two-light round-arched windows, a large two-light mullioned transomed window in an arched panel on the second floor, and a triple group at the top floor. Each of the two top floors of the tower is corbelled and finished with a low saddleback spire. The adjoining gabled bay is also corbelled out over the secondary doorway and has two-light windows of varied designs. The main block features three large gabled dormers.
