Lansdowne infant and junior schools in Canton, Cardiff, were both built in 1896-8 to the designs of Veall and Sant. They are part 'of a series of schools built by the Cardiff School Board and designed by these architects.' During the First World War, the school became a military hospital.
According to Cadw, the two buildings are very similar, the main difference being that the Junior School is two-storey and the Infant school is single storey. Both schools are built with 'Newbridge sandstone rubble in thin courses, Bath stone dressings, brick chimney stacks and Welsh slate roofs.' They have 'large classroom windows', some of which 'retain their small panes while others have been replaced with plate glass.'
Grade II listed 'for its architectural interest as a well designed and almost unaltered late C19 Board School.'
