Built in 1902-06 by the London County Council's Architect's Department. Of Portland stone, with a curious and interesting facade in which some windows are semi-circular and deeply recessed in arches with intervening pairs of columns. Grade II listed. It is now part of Tower Hamlets College (as is the "clumsy" extension to the right).
