Description
Plans for a far more ornate building were apparently dropped in favour of this restrained design with a hexagonal turret marking the entrance. Modern treatment of a deep blue fascia and blue tiles diminish its character and there is room for enhancement here. An internal inspection would be required to see how far the original interior has been preserved. Designed in 1925 by J Stanley Beard. This is a local building of note within the Conservation Area of Gerrards Cross Centenary (B1).
