Grammar School

The Grammar School, built in 1892 by Arthur Vernon, is an asymmetrical building featuring two storeys, an additional attic, and a basement at the east end. It has nine windows and is constructed of red brick with stone dressings. The roof is red tiled with moulded eaves cornice, and there are chimneys with moulded brick cornices. The building includes string courses between the storeys and a plinth, as well as large gables with parapets and stone cappings on either side of the front.

In the west gable, there is a stone quatrefoil set in imitation chip-carved fields beneath a pointed relieving arch. Below this, a large mullioned window spans both storeys, divided by five stone heraldic panels, with Gothic tops to the lights. The east gable features a bay window with three lights that rises through both storeys, topped with a parapet containing inset quatrefoils and corbelled out over a basement window. An attic window with two lights is set in the gable under a pointed relieving arch filled with imitation chip-carving in moulded brick.

Towards the west end, a buttressed porch rises two storeys with an attic and has a stone-panelled parapet. It features a tracery quatrefoil in a pointed window with a hood mould over a pair of lights. Below this is the inscription "Grammar School founded by Richard Collier AD 1532," along with a doorway that has carved spandrels. The front also includes three small buttressed bays with gablets arranged asymmetrically in the middle, featuring paired lights and three pointed relieving arches in the gables with imitation chip-carved fields in moulded brick. At the east end, there is a small pointed door with a hood mould, leading to an internal stair lit by lancets. Other windows are of two, three, and four lights, with those on the ground floor set under segmental relieving arches, all featuring plate glass. A subsidiary wing with simpler details is located on Richmond Road.
