Description
Newlands Park College of Education is a late 18th-century building featuring a cement-rendered exterior and a hipped roof covered with old tiles, complete with a cornice and parapet. The central section is two stories tall and consists of five bays. The ground floor has a chamfered rusticated finish and is accentuated by a hexastyle fluted Doric portico on a podium. The plain first floor has five windows set within architraves. Flanking the central section are recessed side wings, each one story high with a semi-basement, which include panelled pilasters between the upper windows. Early 20th-century additions to the garden front feature stone windows with mullions and transoms. The property also includes a pergola and garden rooms that have rusticated brick quoins, modillion eaves, and pyramid tiled roofs. The interior underwent significant Gothic-style alterations between 1903 and 1910.
