Taunton Grammar School, Grade II* listed grammar school in Taunton, England
Located on Corporation Street, the school building features Tudor-style architecture with rubble walls and ashlar stone dressings across eleven bays.
The east section of the building was established around 1480, and Bishop Richard Foxe of Winchester re-established the school in 1522 with an endowment.
The mastership of Taunton Grammar School maintained permanent connections with New College, Oxford, influencing educational standards in Somerset.
The building underwent several relocations between Corporation Street and South Road before closing as a school in 1885 and becoming municipal offices.
The structure contains preserved historical rooms including the former boys' dormitory and schoolroom, reflecting centuries of educational heritage.
