Former School of Art and Design :: Shared Description
Designed 1901 by the local architectural practice of Bradshaw and Gass as a Day Training Centre. It later became the School of Art and Design of Bolton Metropolitan College, and has more recently been converted to apartments. Listed grade II.
This building, in red brick with terracotta detailing, is a more complete example of Art Nouveau architecture than most to be found in Britain, where the style tended to be confined to small detail.
