Maryborough Boys Grammar School Building, Victorian Gothic educational building in Maryborough, Australia

The two-story brick structure features pointed arch windows, steeply pitched roofs, and decorative elements characteristic of Gothic Revival architecture.

The Maryborough Boys Grammar School Building, designed by architect John Richard Hall, opened its doors to 50 students in September 1881.

The building functions as a testament to 19th-century educational standards, reflecting the importance Queensland communities placed on formal education.

Located on Kent Street, the structure currently operates as an Adult Education Centre while maintaining its position on the Queensland Heritage Register.

Initial newspaper reviews criticized the building's appearance but praised the classroom dimensions, marking an early instance of architectural critique in Queensland.

Location: Queensland
