Description

Christchurch Cathedral School, dated 1892 and designed by H W Moore, is a red brick building featuring two storeys and an attic. The ground floor projects, a design element that continues upward through the central bay above the porch, which itself projects even further. On either side of the porch are four-light mullion and transom windows, while the central bay is adorned with a five-light mullioned window topped by a gable. The first floor includes two four-light mullioned windows and two gabled dormers. The building is capped with a tiled roof.
