Description

Bishopshalt Grammar School (North Wing) is a Tudor style building constructed in 1858, featuring a five-bay design with a slightly later three-bay extension to the south. The structure has two storeys and an attic, with the newer part being taller. The front is characterized by multiple gables and is built of red brick with gable copings in various planes. The window dressings are made of plain stone.

On the left side, there is a projecting two-storey bay, while the right side has a one-storey bay with a pierced strapwork parapet. A similar parapet is found on the glazed porch and the centre bay of the left section. The building has a slated roof with tall chimneys and a bell cupola on the ridge above the central feature.

At the back, there is a conservatory, a long glass structure with a round bowed projection off-centre. It has a rounded roof with a raised centre and is supported by narrow fluted iron columns. The spandrels and blocking course above the wooden cornice feature arabesques. Full height panels between the columns have margin lights and shallow pointed arches, with French doors that have shouldered arches in the bow.

Inside, there are fixed benches supported by twisted iron supports and ornamental conduit grilles. A stained glass window at the back displays the initials of the owner, Stephen Martin, who was associated with Day and Martin's blacking warehouse mentioned in "David Copperfield."
