Description
Great Corby School is a building dating from 1845, constructed for the trustees of the bequest of Henry Howard of Corby Castle, with an extension added in 1882. The original structure features dressed red sandstone walls, a slate roof, and brick chimney stacks. It is two storeys high with three bays and includes a projecting two-storey porch. This porch has a crow-stepped gable and a corbelled-out dormer with a lancet window above a Tudor entrance arch, which has hood-moulds on both sides. The entrance has a 20th-century door. The school has sash windows with glazing bars and hood-moulds, stone modillions at the gutters, and coped gables with kneelers. The 1882 extension is a single storey with four bays, buttressed sandstone walls, and a steeply pitched slate roof featuring decorative ridge tiles and a slated wooden bellcote. It includes four pairs of sash windows with single glazing bars. The listing does not cover the 20th-century additions to the right.
