Description

Detached three-bay single-storey former school, built c.1870, with projecting entrance porches to north and south elevations. Now in use as house. Pitched slate roof with red brick chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls with tooled stone quoins, red brick walls to entrance porches. Segmental-arched window openings with red brick surrounds and stone sills. Segmental-arched door openings. Extension to west.

Appraisal

The symmetrical design of this former national school is enhanced by the segmental-arched openings and by the textural variation created by the roughcast walls, tooled limestone dressings and red brick. This former school is located by the small village green, close to the church, public and waterpump.
