Abstract:
An historic building appraisal was undertaken on behalf of Worcestershire County Council Property Services at Blakebrook School and County Buildings, Bewdley Road, Kidderminster, Worcestershire (NGR ref SO 8248 7666; HER ref 48216). The buildings recorded consisted of the current Kidderminster Registration Office and adjoining County Buildings, Blakebrook School buildings and the Old Coach House. They were all formerly building belonging to King Charles I Grammar School. The oldest building on the site was the Old Coach House which was constructed as the coach house of Woodfield House in the late 18th century. Woodfield House and the Old Coach House were taken over by King Charles I Grammar School when it gained possession of the estate in 1848. At this time the first purpose built school building was constructed in Gothic style with crenelated tower and ecclesiastical windows. This building is now the Registration Office. The school grew through time with the addition of classroom wings and a fives court. In the 1930s new buildings were constructed to the west, including a library building. The Grammar School left the site in the 1970s when it amalgamated with two other schools.
