Lowther Hall Anglican Grammar School
Add to ItineraryDescription
Earlsbrae Hall was built in 1890 for wealthy Melbourne brewer Coiler McCracken. For many years it was also the residence of celebrated Melburnian and Cole's Book Arcade founder E.W. Cole. It now forms part of Lowther Hall Anglican Grammar School, a Kindergarten to Year 12 school for girls. Known affectionately by students as "the Mansion", the building is notable for its high quality materials and elaborate and well-crafted interior spaces.
