Description
This building is a school located at the junction with Riggs Low Road, dated 1853. It is constructed from rock-faced gritstone and has a Welsh slate roof. The structure is single storey with a basement and features two sets of five bays, with an additional small gabled extension at the rear. The main range has tall round-headed sash windows with glazing bars throughout. The main gable includes a chamfered plinth, two ashlar-dressed windows with cill blocks, a continuous impost band, and tripartite keyblocks. A central plaque above the entrance states "DAY AND SUNDAY/SCHOOL/ERECTED A.D. 1853." The gable is adorned with shaped kneelers and square-cut copings, topped with a shouldered and corniced ashlar stack at the apex, with a similar stack at the rear. On the right side, the windows have rock-faced reveals and voussoirs, along with a continuous impost band. There is a small stack at the eaves between the third and fourth bays. The left side features a central low hipped-roof vestibule with a six-panel door on each side, flanked by two windows. This building is included partly for its group value context.
