Description
School House is a former school, now converted into apartments, built in 1908. It features red brick construction with a hipped roof made of Welsh slate and brick wall stacks. The building is designed in a simple Jacobean style, consisting of various small blocks combined together. It has three and four storeys and a total of nine windows across the front, which include mullion and transom windows. The central bay has a canted design, with recessed windows on the sides and pediments on consoles above the first-floor windows. Gables with corner stacks surmount the two-window sections beside the bay, and this stack feature is repeated at other locations on the building. There are entrances on the sides, and the pavilion roofs include two miniature lantern louvres. A plaque on the central bay indicates that this was the 48th municipal school.
