St Boniface College At Warminster School

St Boniface College at Warminster School is a building dating from 1796, designed by David Glascodine of Bristol. It stands three storeys high over a basement, featuring ashlar stone on a rusticated lower ground floor with a plain string at ground floor level. The building has a moulded cornice and parapet with moulded coping. It includes three ranges of glazing bar sash windows, except for the basement, which has two small lights. The outer windows are tripartite, with the outer lights blocked on the right and on the second floor to the left. The central window on the first floor is arched with radiating and wreathed glazing. An extension to the right, built at the same time, is made of coursed and squared rubble and features an oriel bay window on the first floor, with a tripartite window above.

The west front has two three-storey angular bays with a cornice flanking a central window on the upper floors, and a six-panel central door with sidelights in a plain arched surround, with ramped railings that curl at the bottom leading to the steps. The right-hand wing is a large neo-Jacobean addition by J.A. Reeve from 1897, standing two and a half and three and a half storeys tall, constructed of dressed stone. It features moulded strings, a cornice, a balustraded parapet, and finials on the gabled dormers. The first floor has single light windows, while the ground floor has three light windows within Tudor arches, with bracket consoles to buttresses flanking a gabled break to the right. The north and west fronts are even more opulent, with a projecting entrance at the north-west corner.

The left-hand wing, built in 1927 by Sir Charles Nicholson, is quite impressive in a Gothic style. It has an 'L' plan, with the south wing containing a large chapel featuring cusped tracery lights above the library. The projection towards the road has a wide entrance and a stair turret that connects to the 1796 block.
