1889 Central School, Gough Street 歌賦街大書院低座校舍

3D Model

1862年大書院（今皇仁書院）創校於歌賦街，所在地段前身為建於1842年的兩層高美南浸信會會址及宏藝書塾。校舍由低座校舍（設講堂及兩間課室）、高座校舍（上層設教員宿舍，下層設兩間課室）及另外三座獨立建築物（廁所、廚房、校工宿舍）組成。由於課室擠迫及校舍殘舊，書院於1889年遷進一街之隔的荷里活道第二代校舍。 Central School (now Queen’s College) was founded in 1862 on Gough Street, where the Chinese Southern Baptist Church building (1842) was located. The Campus comprised of a lower school (1 lecture hall and 2 schoolrooms), upper school (quarters for headmaster and second master on upper floor and 2 schoolrooms on lower floor) and three out buildings (latrines, kitchen and coolie quarters). As the schoolrooms became severely overcrowded and the the buildings unsafe, the College moved into its new campus at the junction of Aberdeen Street and Hollywood Road in 1889.
