Brick 5:
Most of the bricks of this building have the Strecher bond with raked joints but the bricks on the columns at the corners have the colonial bond. The bricks are all in deep brown and this colour is quite similar to the roof colour. It makes the building looks quite old. The thickness of mortar is not regular since some of the mortars are really visible while some are not. There is the rough relieving arch at the windows and some arches for both decorating the columns at the corners of the building and supporting the whole building. The bricks here could be for structural use since the whole building is mainly constructed by bricks and the columns in front of the entrance could be for extra support.
