Description

The annex to the Church of St Jude the Apostle, built around 1850, was originally a school and is now used as offices. It features pennant rubble with limestone dressings, a moulded ashlar lateral stack, and a half-hipped roof covered in concrete tiles. The building is designed in the Gothic Revival style and has an L-shaped single-depth plan with two storeys and a five-window range.

The main gabled block includes a right-hand wing with splayed corners, while the left-hand entrance block has a parapet and a pointed-arched doorway flanked by columns with bell capitals. Above the door, there is a hood with head stops and well-crafted strap hinges, leading to paired lancet windows. The coped gable displays a three-light ground-floor mullion and transom window with plate glass, above which is a two-centred arched window featuring plate tracery, three lights with trefoil heads, and a central quatrefoil.

The right-hand wing has three windows with shouldered lintels on the ground floor and pointed heads on the first floor. The hipped end includes a central arched doorway and windows similar to those on the road front. At the rear, a tall chimney features four linked octagonal stacks. The annex also has attached railings and piers at the right-hand corner. It was built as an annex to the Church of St Jude, which was constructed between 1848 and 1849 by architect S.B. Gabriel.
