Architecture
Greenside School is a Grade II* listed building built in 1952 and designed by the internationally renowned architect Ernő Goldfinger.[1]
Greenside school (along with Brandlehow School) is one of the two only examples of pre-cast reinforced concrete frame with brick infill designed by Goldfinger after the Second World War with the objective of re-built schools in a functional, fast and economical manner.[1]
The building has a fine top lit mural by artist Gordon Cullen that was restored in 2014.[1]
