As part of the new development of McCrum Yard, the Jafar Gallery houses Eton College's collection of antiquities and ancient artefacts. The theatre building behind is constructed of rusticated brickwork with a copper roof and augmented with stone sphinxes and a fountain. Inside there is a polychromatic debating chamber based on the Council Chamber at Priene.
To the east and north, an L-shaped red brick building with stone dressings houses the Department of Modern Languages. Replacing a line of twentieth century buildings, the west side is formed by a new yellow stock brick building for the Department of Economics and Politics and the Department of Divinity, which sit either side of double height arch giving views into the new quadrangle from the street.

The new Lyttleton & Elliott School room buildings which replace a line of twentieth century buildings on South Meadow Lane. Five different bricks were used on the masterplan so that it reads as a collection of buildings around a new quadrangle, and not to simply read as a one mass block. The buildings feature a self-supporting fill brick flemish bond masonry constructed with an independant internal frame. This provides deep window reveals which help with shading from the sunlight.
