GV II
Baptist Sunday and day school with attached boundary wall and railings, now mosque. 1878, altered. Sandstone ashlar, slate roofs. C17 Vernacular style. PLAN: E-plan formed by a main hall-range fronting North Street with receding wings at both ends and in the centre of the rear, the left wing coupled with a porch at the left end of the main range. EXTERIOR: single-storey, 2:1:6:1 windows, the wings and porch taller than the main range; with a chamfered plinth, swept and moulded sillband. The hall-range has 2-light mullioned windows with chamfered surrounds and mullions; to the left, the taller gabled porch, breaking the eaves, has an altered doorway with tall mullioned overlight, and the gable of the wing to its left has 2 tall 2-light windows, these 3 openings linked by a deep hood-mould stepped over them, with foliated terminal stops. The gable of the right-hand wing has one tall 3-light window in similar style. Each wing also has a small 2-light window in the gable, and all 3 gables are steeply-pitched, with stone copings. The left return of the left wing (to Altham Street) has windows of 2, 1, 1 and 2 lights symmetrically disposed either side of a side-wall chimney; the right return of the right-hand wing has 2 large 3-light windows with deep hood-moulds finished with foliated stops. INTERIOR not inspected. SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: attached to the right-hand corner is a low wall with chamfered coping which carries cast-iron spear railings and columnar standards with urn finials, and has a gate at the left end in similar style but with an arched top-rail. The wall and railings have an eastward return along Angle Street, ramping up to meet a short section of higher boundary wall at the junction with the boundary of Angle Street Baptist Chapel (qv). Forms a good group with the parent chapel, sharing a small triangular plot with it.
