Description
Panmure St Anne's, formerly St Anne's School, is a two-storey, seven-bay Gothic building constructed in 1879 by Robert Morham, with later additions, including a sympathetic five-bay extension from 1931 to the west. The structure features squared and snecked, stugged ashlar with polished dressings.
The principal elevation faces south and includes a base course and a string course with shallow-pointed arch openings above some windows. There is a moulded cill course at the first floor and a dentiled eaves course. The ground floor has mullioned and transomed windows, with a tripartite window in the center and bipartite windows flanking it. Some first-floor windows have pointed-arch recesses with clasping columns at the corners and columnar mullions; the center arch is glazed while the outer bays are blind. At the ridge, there are a pair of metal pyramidal-capped ventilator hoods. A door is located in the far left bay, featuring a bracketed cornice above and a moulded panel to the immediate right. A low wall with cast-iron railings runs between the advanced outer bays.
The rear elevation, facing north, has a two-leaf Gothic-arch timber door with scrolled metal hinges on the far left. The center of the 1879 building features a shouldered chimney-gablet. A later addition includes a metal cantilevered balcony with iron railings that runs the full length of the first floor.
Inside, the building has simple moulded cornicing and timber corbelled ceiling joists, with segmental arched window surrounds. Most rooms feature timber dado to window height, and there is a timber floor in the hall of the western addition.
