Description

The Old School House is an early 19th-century building that has undergone later alterations. It is constructed of red brick and stands two storeys tall. The façade features two three-light stone mullioned windows set in plain stone surrounds. To the right, there is a doorway framed by a stone surround with a shallow arched head, leading to a ledged door. A bay projects from the left side of the ground storey, which includes a small pointed arched window with 'Y' glazing bars. The building has gabled ends and is topped with modern tiles. The Old School House is included for its group value, as it forms part of a group with Nos 11 to 19 (odd).
