Penkhull school opened in 1896 on land which was formerly part of the Mount Estate of Josiah Spode II. Its size and appearance are typical of many built in the Potteries during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. 
Note the windows beneath the main gables, a reflection of the area's continued fascination with the Venetian style.
