Watford: Elizabeth Fuller's Free School
Elizabeth Fuller (1644–1709), often called Dame Elizabeth Fuller as a title of respect, founded her Free School for forty boys and twenty girls in grounds next to the churchyard of St Mary in 1704. The School eventually developed into the separate Watford Girls' and Boys' Grammar Schools.

Three window range. Centre breaks forward with pediment. Wood dentil eaves cornice. Stone quoins to centre bay and outer angles. Stone band across. Stone central doorcase with moulded architrave and enriched segmental pediment on brackets. Inscription to Mrs Fuller in broad frieze below. Ten panel double doors. Large round-headed windows with gauged brick arches, wooden Y-tracery and leaded lights. Oval keyed window in pediment with ornamental stucco scroll beneath with MDCCIV in raised letters."
