Description
The former Rothwell (Oulton) Church of England Primary School, now an office, was built in 1877. It features coursed sandstone and a stone slate roof. The building has an L-plan layout, consisting of a rectangular main range with a short wing at the rear of the right-hand end. It is one storey high and has five bays, with the ends projecting slightly and gabled. The design is symmetrical and in the Jacobean style, featuring a central porch with diagonal buttresses and a Tudor-arched outer doorway. The porch has a weathered ashlar roof topped with a gabled bellcote, although the bell is missing. On either side of the porch are three-light mullioned windows, and each outer bay contains a similar two-light window, all adorned with hoodmoulds that have foliated stops. The right-hand gable displays a shield inscribed with "1877". The building is topped with a coped parapet that has exaggerated kneelers at the gabled ends. The right-hand return wall and the rear gable of the left end both feature large stepped three-light windows.
