The Worcester Diocesan Training-School, at Saltley, near Birmingham, 1850. '...the Training School...consists of school-room, dining-room, class-rooms, masters' dwellings, and every necessary apartment; on the first and second floors are dormitories for 60 students.... The scheme has much of a collegiate arrangement; but the architect has avoided the pretensions of such an establishment, and adapted a simpler style of architecture than is usually employed in the learned universities; considering it desirable to give the building a distinctive expression only, that might mark it as one united with many others to carry out an educational scheme peculiar to the present day...The design is by Mr. B. Ferrey, architect; and is in the style of domestic architecture of Edward III.'s time...The builders are Messrs. Winsland and Holland, of Duke-street, Bloomsbury'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
