Middlewich Technical Institute was built in 1897 incorporating a lot of terracotta decoration.

Today I found another masterpiece in terracotta, the Middlewich Technical Institute and Free Library of 1897. So far I have been unable to elicit any detail of the history but it clearly incorporates some fine architectural features, although rather "over the top" in some ways. The friezes are something else.
