The Former Queen Elizabeth Old Grammar School and its adjoining schoolmaster's house are Grade II* listed buildings on Boarshaw Road in Middleton, a town within the Metropolitan Borough of Rochdale, Greater Manchester, England. Dating from the late 16th and early 19th centuries respectively, they were historically part of Lancashire and represent surviving examples of Tudor educational and domestic architecture in North West England. They form part of Middleton's "Golden Cluster" of heritage sites.
The original grammar school building, sold in 1909 after its closure, was later repurposed for community use. Following restoration in 1997 and an acquisition by Rochdale Council in 2024 to protect its heritage, it now functions as a heritage and events venue.
