Many of his buildings elsewhere are Grade II listed including: St Barnabas Church and its church hall in Mitcham, war memorials at Hildenborough in Kent and Merton Park, Ravensbourne School (Bromley) and Singlegate School in Mitcham.<br /> <br /> Antram in Buildings of England describes it thus: brick and pebbledash with banded brick and stone quoins. Contemporary brick and stone piers and railings with overthrows, originally incorporating lanterns.<br /> <br /> This was Bexhill’s first state (rather than church) school, the northern wing and entrance block with its elegant bell tower cupola was completed first, in 1907, the south wing was added in 1912. By 1937 it had a roll of 335.<br /> <br /> == Gallery ==<br /> &lt;gallery&gt;<br /> King Offa Primary Academy, Down Road 2.jpg<br /> King Offa School, Down Road, Bexhill (3).jpg<br /> King Offa School, Down Road, Bexhill (2).jpg|East elevation<br /> King Offa School, Down Road, Bexhill.jpg|West elevation<br /> Relief, King Offa School, Down Road, Bexhill.jpg|Relief<br /> 1907 Hall, King Offa School, Down Road, Bexhill.jpg|Interior<br /> 1912 Hall, King Offa School, Down Road, Bexhill.jpg<br /> Tiling, King Offa School, Down Road, Bexhill.jpg|Tiling<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;<br /> <br /> [[Category:Schools]]<br /> [[Category:1900s]]<br /> [[Category:St. Stephen&#039;s Ward]]<br /> [[Category:Down Road]]<br /> [[Category:All]]</div>
