Horace Belden School and Central Grammar School

The Horace Belden School and Central Grammar School are a pair of architecturally distinguished Late Gothic Revival occupying a single campus at 933 Hopmeadow Street and 29 Massaco Street in Simsbury, Connecticut.

The buildings were listed as a pair on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 for their architecture and their role in the town's educational system.

Both are two-story buildings, with ashlar brownstone walls, and predominantly Gothic Revival styling.

[2] Both schools came about through the financial support of Horace Belden, a Simsbury native whose grandfather had made a fortune in merchant trade with the West Indies.

Belden's philanthropy, in addition to funding the schools, also paid for the local water company, and for the improvement of town roads.
