TRINITY NATIONAL SCHOOLS, COVENTRY.

JAMES MURRAY, Esq., Architect.

These Schools have just been completed in one of the improving districts of Coventry, to meet the want which has long been felt in connection with the mother Church. The architect is Mr. Murray, who has produced a picturesque building, and well suited to its purpose. It consists, as will be seen, of two floors, providing large boys', girls', and infants' school-rooms, with convenient class and cloak rooms. The walling is of the red sandstone of the locality, brought to a tooled surface, and irregularly jointed. The roofs are of high pitch, and are open as much as possible in the rooms. The design has been carried out by Mr. Thomas Pratt, of Coventry, at a cost of about 3000l. Convenient teachers' residences are immediately adjoining.
