Summary

edit
Description
English: Knebworth: Former St Albans Boys' Home Completed in 1914 in the neo-Georgian style favoured for institutional buildings at the time and largely unchanged since, the former Boys' Home is in London Road. It is locally listed by virtue of its relevance to the social history of Knebworth, and some original architectural detail such as its symmetry, narrow sash windows and the main entrance with its hipped roof and projecting brick quoins. It is interesting to consider that such a large dedicated building would have been deemed necessary as late as 1914. It is currently in use as the Stepping Stone Pre-School nursery.
