Description
Fives Court at Warminster School is an early to mid-19th century structure that has served as a fives court at the former Lord Weymouth School since 1806. The court is oriented to the east and features angled and weathered buttresses. It is constructed of brick, with coursed and squared stone panels, and has a rendered surface suitable for play. The design is modeled on similar courts found at Winchester.
