Description
St Mark's Church Infant School is a school built in 1889, possibly designed by the architect J.R. Reeve, who also designed St Mark's Church. The building features polychrome brick with blue brick bands and decorative diaper-work, along with stone copings, kneelers, keys, imposts, and stoding around the windows. It has crested plain tile roofs with brick stacks. The school has a T-plan layout with short outer rear wings that house classroom blocks flanking a central wing, which is set at right angles and extends to a long assembly hall at the back.
In the Gothic Revival style, with some Domestic Revival details, the building is one storey high. The gabled entrance bay includes a moulded pointed-arched doorway set within a segmental-arched architrave, and above it is a three-light window with an ovolu-moulded stone lintel supported by chamfered brick mullions. The doorway and window are flanked by double-chamfered lancet windows. The roof features a louvred bellcote topped with a tile spirelet. Each classroom has a small gabled roof dormer with a cusped tympanum in the outer bays, and tall half-hipped half-dormers dominate the sides, each with four similar graduated lancets. The sides and rear also have similar dormers and lancets. The rear wings are connected by pentices with lean-to roofs supported by timber posts. The interior has not been inspected, but the building is noted as a fine and well-detailed example.
