Former Lancasterian School, Shrewsbury
Viewed across Beacall's Lane. The building is on the corner of Albert Street.
The inscription at the top of the building shows SHREWSBURY BRITISH SCHOOLS ESTABLISHED 1813.
The Shropshire History website states that the original school building of 1813 was on the site of the present-day railway station. The school moved here in 1851. This building appears on stylistic grounds to have been built in the 1870s or early 1880s, apparently to the designs of Edward Haycock. It was considerably extended to the SE and SW in 1889. The school (then named Lancasterian School) closed in 1988. The building was later bought by the adjacent HM Prison Shrewsbury and was used for offices, storage and workshops for their maintenance department. The prison closed in March 2013.

Former school, Albert Street, Shrewsbury
The plaque top right reads 'Shrewsbury British Schools Established 1813 Enlarged 1889'. The style of this part of the building suggests the latter date. Recent Streetview imagery shows it was being converted by RGB Group but the new use is unclear.
