#BurnleyHorticulturalCollege, in beautiful grounds in Burnley, #Richmond, established in 1865, has a great centrepiece building by #PercyEverett, Chief Architect of the #PublicWorksDepartment, built in 1947. His post war work was pretty much the same as his pre war work, in his trademark Modern/ #Moderne, but a bit squarer and and simplified than before, eg all one colour #creambrick. There’s still loads of great details, zippy brickwork, dynamic massing of horizontals vs verticals, and its (mostly) symmetrical about the long axis, so front and back are mirror images.
