II
School, now in partial use as commercial premises. Dated 1873. Brick with stone dressings and green slate roof. Gothic style. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys, 5-window range. Tower over entrance to left, slightly advanced. Stumpy recessed columns carry deeply moulded archway of entrance between buttresses with stone gablets. Dated with its name in a tablet above the doorway. 2-light traceried window above, and rose window in coped gablet below mansard roof. Lower windows in main school-room range to right are paired, with stilted arches and foliate capitals to the central shaft. Continuous hoodmould and cill band. Upper windows alternately paired cusped stilted arches divided by shaft with foliate capital, and foiled 2-light windows beneath coped gablet. All upper windows linked by continuous cill band and hoodmould, and many retain original leading. Coped gables and ridge cresting throughout. INTERIOR: not inspected. The school was built for Leek Congregational Church and named after a former minister. A convincing composition in Gothic Revival style.
