Description
The Royal Artillery Barracks Gun Park Block is an early 19th-century, single-storey building with five bays. The three central bays project slightly and are topped with a pediment featuring a stone cornice above brick dentils. In the tympanum, there is a round window with wooden louvres and a gauged brick surround. The building has a low-pitched, hipped slate roof and brick dentil cornices at the eaves, which continue across the front below the pediment. The walls are made of multicoloured stock brick with a brick plinth.
There are round-headed windows set in round-arched recesses, which have a stone impost band. The arched door opening is similar in proportions to the recesses, with all arches made of gauged brick. The sash windows feature glazing bars and have radial heads. The double door has a cornice head aligned with the impost band and a radial fanlight with outer margin lights. On either side of the main block, there are lower, single-storey wings with three windows each. These wings have hipped slate roofs and a brick dentil eaves cornice that aligns with the impost band of the main block. The wings are constructed from multicoloured stock brick, with flat angle pilasters and a plinth, and they feature recessed panels below the sash windows, which are also under gauged brick arches.
