Description
The Village Hall and attached house, known as No 21, is a building originally constructed as a school and school master's house in 1852 for the Earl of Harrington. It features red brick with yellow brick headers in Flemish bond, complemented by stone dressings and stone copings on the brick plinth. The roof is steeply pitched, showcasing a combination of banded fishscale and plain tiles, with pierced bargeboards and an external gable stack on the west side that has twin pots, along with a side wall external brick stack on the east.
The structure is single storey and consists of three bays for the school on the west, with a single bay tower at the east end where it connects to the house, which is oriented at right angles. The school has an advanced gabled centre bay that features a large three-light recessed and chamfered cross window with a dripmould, and a moulded plaque displaying the Harrington crest above it. Smaller two-light recessed and chamfered mullion windows are located on either side.
The east tower is three storeys high and includes a chamfered four-centred arched doorcase with incised spandrels, a hoodmould, and a plank door facing south, along with a stepped buttress on the west side. Above the door, there is a recessed and chamfered single light window with a returned hoodmould, and further up, a moulded stone quatrefoil inscribed with '1852'. The west side of the tower has a recessed and chamfered single light window on the ground floor, with similar windows on the third stage and a small blocked window in the second stage. The tower is topped with a coved eaves stringcourse and an embattled parapet.
The house to the east has a gable wall on the main front featuring a three-light recessed and chamfered mullion window with a dripmould on the ground floor, and a similar two-light window above, along with a matching crested plaque. The east elevation has a similar arrangement of windows. All windows throughout the building are lozenge pattern iron casements. The rear additions are noted as being of no interest.
