Nursery, first and middle schools. 1884, with late C19 and C20 additions and alterations. By Wilson & Masters. For the Ecclesfield School Board. Coursed squared stone with ashlar dressings and slate roofs. Gothic Revival style. Plinth. EXTERIOR: Parkside Road front has 3 symmetrical blocks linked by late C20 corridors. 7: 8: 8 windows. Gable windows are cross casements with stone mullions and stepped heads, set in pointed arched recesses. Left block has 4 coped brick ridge stacks and square wooden bell turret with swept pyramidal spire and finial, with small gabled lucarnes. Central gable with 3-light window, flanked by two 2-light stone mullioned casements. Beyond, projecting cross-wing gables with 4-light windows with cusped heads. Central block has a double gable with two 3-light windows flanked by 2-light mullioned casements. Beyond, slightly projecting cross-wing gables with 4-light windows. Right block has 4 coped brick ridge stacks. In the centre, two 2-light mullioned casements, flanked by gabled through-eaves dormers with 3-light windows. Beyond, single 2-light mullioned casements, then flush cross-wing gables with 4-light windows. INTERIOR not inspected. SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: outside, attached stone boundary wall to house and school, with square stone piers and cross gabled ashlar caps. Parkside Road range has spiked wrought-iron railing on chamfered stone plinth and 4 pairs of gate piers with matching gates. Higher range to Middlewood Road has gabled stone coping and rounded corner. Catch Bar Lane range has central double gateway and smaller gateway to right. Wall to right has gabled coping. To left, higher section of wall with stepped slab coping and adjoining outbuildings with hipped and lean-to roofs. HISTORICAL NOTE: this building has considerable similarities in design and layout to the junior schools built by the Sheffield School Board during the preceding 10 years, perhaps because illustrations of them were published by the architects, Innocent & Brown, in 1874.
