Alleyn’s School
The architects who designed the 1887 building were a Newcastle-based firm, Oliver, Leeson & Wood, who later went on to design St Barnabas Church on Calton Avenue in 1892 (the church was burned down in 1992). The School contained 16 ‘commodius’ [sic] classrooms, a cap room, offices, kitchens, a knife-cleaning room and servants’ quarters.
