Description
St Thomas's School is a school building dating from around 1870. It is constructed from coursed and roughly squared rubble in small blocks, with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof. The building is symmetrically planned and single-storeyed, featuring gabled wings on either side, each with its own gabled porch, and a central gable that also includes an entrance.
The central gable has a lean-to porch supported by heavy angle buttresses and features squat trefoiled windows set within a relieving arch. At the apex of the gable, there is a recessed arched panel with a small rose window. The gable is topped with stone copings and a wrought-iron finial. On either side of the central gable, there are two paired lancet windows. The separately roofed gabled porches at the angle of the wings each have heavy moulding around the doorways. Each wing also contains high triple traceried windows, along with angle buttresses and a short buttress beneath the windows.
