Description


BURNLEY

SD8432NW CHURCH STREET 906-1/16/38 (West side) 29/09/77 St Peter's Church of England Infants and Junior School (West range) (Formerly Listed as: CHURCH STREET (West side) St Peter's Infant and Junior School)

GV II

School. Late C19; altered. Snecked sandstone rubble, slate roof. Rectangular plan with extensions at both ends. Gothic style. The main range is a single storey over a basement which exploits a fall in the ground (down to the bank of the River Brun), with a 4-bay architectural front to the south. This has an open-arcaded basement play area, with buttresses and double-chamfered segmental-pointed arches; a main floor which has 6-light mullion-and-transom windows with hood-moulds and figured stops; and a steeply-pitched roof with coped gables and a gable chimney at the east end. At the east end is a ramped approach to a C20 entrance made in the side of the east extension. The rear of this range has 4 windows like those at the front. The east extension, facing onto the churchyard, is of 2 unequal bays, that to the left having a gabled porch with a blocked segmental-headed doorway and a side-window under one hood-mould, and a crow-stepped gable with a sunk plaque carved with the keys of St Peter, and that to the right gabled, with a large canted mullion-and-transom bay window. Lower additions at the south-east corner now link this building with the East Range (qv). INTERIOR not inspected.
