Abstract: |
In July 2015 Archaeology South-East (a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, University College London) carried out a programme of historic building recording in connection with the development of the University of Brighton Circus Street Annexe, Circus Street, Brighton, East Sussex, BN2 9QF (NGR 531462 104453). The work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to satisfy conditions attached to planning permission (Planning ref: BH2013/03461) for the redevelopment of the site. The building is an example of a mixed sex Board School constructed in the latter part of the 19th century, in the location of a former Board School dating to c.1875. The school comprises a part three and part four storey brick built building, which originally formed a larger complex of three open playground areas with associated ancillary structures. The building's open spaces and ancillary structures situated along Circus Street were demolished during the first half of the 20th century to accommodate the construction of the Circus Street Municipal Market adjacent the school, following a programme of slum clearance in 1937. During the 20th century the school was acquired by the University of Brighton and served as a college of arts and crafts by 1954. The building now operates as mixed office and teaching space. This work compliments an Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment previously produced for the site by CgMs Consulting, dated June 2013. |
