CREMORNE STREET STATE SCHOOL (FORMER) - Physical Description 1
The former Cremorne Street State School comprises two brick buildings designed in Romanesque and Gothic inspired styles. The 1878 building on Cremorne Street is single-storey, with walls of brown brick with contrasting cream and black brick string courses and dressings. The gabled and hipped roofs are steeply pitched and clad in slate, penetrated by small gabled roof vents. The central section has a metal-clad fleche with a steeple-like roof, cast iron finials and crestings. There is a rendered moulded string course below a red and cream brick frieze, and brick buttresses have gabled caps. Flanking the central pavilion are two gabled wings connected by hipped roof linking sections. The outer wings have paired semi-circular arched windows with moulded cream brick voussoirs. Three smaller arched openings are located within the gable ends, which have rendered copings.
The 1890 two-storey building facing Dover Street is similarly of polychromatic brick, but has a hipped roof is clad in non-original concrete tiles. Ground floor windows are pointed-arched double-hung sashes, with alternating cream brick and rendered voussoirs and bluestone sills. First floor windows are semi-circular arched double hung sashes. Cream, red and brown brick string course run across the elevations at impost and sill levels. Large gables project on the south and
east elevations, with decorative carved barge boards and corbelled brackets.CREMORNE STREET STATE SCHOOL (FORMER) - Integrity
