1923 by B Parker. Classical style with Greek cross plan form. Welsh slate
roofs. Brown brick with red brick dressings and wooden modillion cornice
carried round the open pediments of the 4 arms of the building. Architraved
sash windows with flat gauged brick arches, dressings and glazing bars. Main
east front with 3-bay arcaded entrance approached by steps. This is the most
important of the post World War I buildings in Letchworth. Represents a radical
change in style and materials from the informal Arts and Crafts idiom to a
more formal classicism.

Images of England
Images of England was a photographic record of every listed building in England, created as a snap shot of listed buildings at the turn of the millennium. These photographs of the exterior of listed buildings were taken by volunteers between 1999 and 2008. The project was supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund.
