Description
Horfield Baptist Church Institute is an institute built in 1921. It features snecked squared rubble with ashlar dressings and a tiled roof, arranged in a double-depth plan. The building has four storeys and a four-window range. A central gable is flanked by pilasters and lower blocks. On the ground floor, there is a granite memorial plaque set in a segmental arch with attached shafts on either side and a shield above. Cross windows are positioned on each side, topped by a drip mould with floral stops. The side blocks have double doors with chamfered reveals and moulded segmental arches. The first and second floors have linked windows with chamfered mullions and transoms, with a blind window in the centre. The third floor features a five-light mullion window, with two- and three-light windows on either side. Inside, there are lateral stairs, a meeting hall, and offices. The building is accessed by steps leading up to the front, and there is an area wall with square piers. It occupies a prominent site and has group value with Horfield Baptist Church.
