Description
Leaf Schools, part of Harrow School, are two small single-storey blocks under a mansard roof, featuring a central carriage arch and linked at roof level. The buildings have scant remains of older structures known as Sheridans Stables. The dark red brickwork from the 18th century has been partially rebuilt, and a roof was added in 1954, which includes five paired dormer windows. At the rear, there is a modern addition with access to upper classrooms via an external staircase and walkway. A stone tablet in the archway states: "Built in 1936 out of money bequeathed to the school by Herbert Leaf (Rendells 1867-1873)."
