Description
St Peter's Jubilee Sunday School is a Sunday school building constructed in 1811 for Richard Ainsworth. It is made of coursed and squared stone with ashlar dressings and features a stone flagged roof. The building is two storeys high and has a nine-window range that creates an asymmetrical composition of 5-2-2. There is an off-centre advanced pedimented bay, and the right-hand section was originally the school master's house, characterized by rusticated quoins, a band over the ground floor openings, and a moulded gutter cornice.
There are doorways to the left and adjacent to the pedimented section, both featuring wrought-iron fanlights. The windows are wood mullioned and transomed with wedge lintels. An inscription in the pediment, which is now badly worn, reads, "..accession of his majesty KING GEORGE the IIId to the throne of these realms." A series of buttresses on the front wall were possibly added shortly after the building's construction. There is also a short parallel rear wing made of brick and stone, which is a later addition.
The interior appears to have been remodelled in the late 19th century, with the roof over the first-floor hall featuring timber arched braces, raking struts, and wrought-iron braces and kingposts, likely from this period.
