Abstract: |
In April and May 2016 Archaeological Solutions Ltd carried out a historic building recording at the Pemberton Building, Alban City School, 7 Hatfield Road, St Albans, Hertfordshire. The work was undertaken prior to the demolition of the existing 19th century Pemberton building and construction of a multi-use games area and external play area at Alban City School. Pemberton building is a late Victorian remnant of a much larger school structure, which was largely demolished in the early 1970s to construct the present buildings on the site. It comprises three large classrooms, with high ceilings of hammer-beam type construction connected by a smaller range. Though much denuded of original fabric and altered, the original structural form remains largely intact, with a few original decorative features which reveal that the building was typical of educational establishments of the period. |
