Description

The Bunbury School is a former National Sunday and Daily School, constructed in 1830, and later converted into dwellings. It is built of red brick with blue brick detailing in a Flemish bond pattern, and has a slate roof. The building has five bays, predominantly single-storey, though the south bay, originally the teacher's house, is two-storey high. The end bays are set back, while the central bay projects forward. A sandstone plinth runs along the base. The mullion and transom windows have casements with glazing bars, stone sills, and stone skewback heads with carved keystones. A stone tablet positioned above the central window details the school's original purpose and date. The north and central bays are gabled and have stone copings, while the remaining bays have an ogee-moulded stone gutter cornice. A round lead rainwater head, bearing the names J Young, G Roylance, and another (R.E.), along with the date 1830, is also present. The roof of the former teacher's house is pitched at a right angle to the main school roof and includes a chimney. The interior has been modernised for residential use and retains no significant historic features.
