Description

Harewood Church of England Junior and Infant School and Number 34 (School House) was built around 1768 by John Carr for Edwin Lascelles, 1st Lord Harewood. It has undergone alterations in the middle of the 19th century and the early 20th century. The building is constructed from hammer-dressed stone with a stone slate roof. Its symmetrical facade features two one-bay, two-storey pavilion blocks and a three-bay, single-storey schoolroom. Quoins are present. A plinth and a first-floor band extend around the outer bays and continue as an eaves band across the schoolroom. The outer bays project forward; their ground-floor windows originally featured cross windows, with the right-hand window now containing a 48-pane sash. Above, the windows have recessed mullions, though the mullion of the left-hand window has been removed. The pavilion blocks have hipped roofs with a single ridge stack and one to the rear pitch of the master's house. The schoolroom has four-pane sash windows with plain stone surrounds, originally cross windows. To the left of the main block is an added lean-to with a doorway, window, and a tall lateral stack rendered in white. The right-hand return has paired doorways with overlights, tie-stone jambs and chamfered surrounds to the left of a cross window, with a two-light window above; both upper windows have recessed mullions. Attached to the right is a tall schoolroom with three bays of two-light Tudor-style mullioned windows to the left of a doorway with a moulded surround. This section has a coped gable with a stack and bellcote. Another lower extension features two four-light chamfered windows and a Westmorland green-slate roof.
