LITTLE HORTON LANE (west side) BD5
Glyde House
II
Built as a chapel school and named after a popular minister, Jonathan Glyde, who established the Town Mission. Lockwood and Mawson won its competition, held in 1860, for a chapel and school in Horton Lane. The buildings were completed in 1862 but the chapel has been demolished. The remaining school is a two storey building raised on a podium basement, and designed in a restrained Dutch Jacobean Renaissance manner. Shaped gabled wings flank a recessed centre screened by a columned loggia. Pitched face sandstone "bricks" with ashlar dressings. Faceted-block banded quoin pilasters to ground floor of wings with rusticated quoins above. Obelisk finials flanking gable copings. The two columns of the loggia have faceted-blocks to shafts, pierced parapet above. Bold, spaced voussoirs to arches of ground floor windows. The first floor windows of wings are given a more Baroque dressing: aedicule surrounds with segmental open pediments and pierced stone balconettes. Welsh slate roofs and moulded stone eaves. Glyde House is prominently sited on the hillside at the foot of Little Horton Lane.
