Linthorpe Community Primary School

  • Description

    The school was built as Linthorpe Road School, to educate up to 300 children of the Wesleyan School near the Albert Park Hotel. The original wing is the only remaining Victorian school premises in Middlesbrough serving its original purpose. A sustained increase in population created the need for further expansion of the School taking the form of a new wing, which opened in November 1912. The building is Neo- Gothic in style and was originally built as single storey in an attractive red brick. Architectural features include stone tracery to windows, alternating colours to arches and decorative ridge tiles. The later addition to the school was a two storey buff red brick building with stone quoins, red brick lintels and small circular window feature. The polychromatic brickwork to the gables and arches is a striking feature of this building and a feature easily identified with other buildings in Middlesbrough.
