Description



BRISTOL

ST315871 STILLHOUSE LANE, Bedminster
901-1/45/388 (East side)
St Mary Redcliffe and Temple School
and attached sheds

II

Board school. 1895. By WV Gough. Pennant rubble with Pennant
and limestone dressings, brick gable stacks and tiled roof
with decorative ridges. Symmetrical T-shaped plan with a
central hall and flanking wings. Jacobethan style.
2 storeys; 5:1:5-window range. The central block is set back
between gabled wings, framed by tall square, ribbed ventilator
stacks set in the re-entrant angles, with ground- and
first-floor sill bands. The central block has 2 mullion and
transom ground-floor windows with elliptical-arched heads and
6 lights, a large full-width semicircular-arched first-floor
window with stone tracery, and a Dutch gable above topped by a
bellcote.
The wings have similar gables to the returns and above
semicircular-arched porte cochere to the ends, flat-headed
windows with ovolo mouldings, a 2-light first-floor window
over the portes cocheres, tall cross windows to the stairs
inside the end gables, and 3 mullion windows inside these, all
with sashes with glazing bars.
INTERIOR: dogleg stairs up to a first-floor hall in the middle
block, which has a barrel roof springing from scrolled
corbels. Some science rooms with original cupboards and work
tops.
SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: an open shed on cast-iron stanchions
extends from the right hand wing to a gable just inside the
playground wall with a blocked semicircular arch.
One of the best-composed of Bristol's Board Schools, in a
restrained and rational manner, remarkable in the context of
Gough's more famous work.

Committee, BCC: 1895-).
