This very elaborate Gothic building was designed by WHC Fisher and built by JP Seddon in 1891. Iron-framed, the building also has many decorative features including fine patterned glazing, foliated marble columns and busts of the great Victorians Faraday, Huxley, Kelvin, Barry, Rossetti, Leighton, Turner and Queen Victoria. Inside, there is an Art Nouveau scroll of 1903. The Centre for Science and Art once contained a museum, which has since been moved to Stratford Park. Today, the building is used mainly to house schools and colleges.
