Description

The Methodist School is a building dating from 1859. It is constructed of stone and has a slate roof. The main section is a single storey with a two-storey block added to the right. The single storey block features seven bays, with the first bay containing a door that has a moulded round arch and a keystone. The remaining bays have round arched windows, also with keystones and glazing bars. The fourth bay projects at the gable and has a date stone above, along with moulded coping and kneelers at the gable. The two-storey block includes a round arched window and two smaller windows with moulded heads on either side. Above this is a three-light round headed window, flanked by two smaller arched windows that also have keystones.
