Description

Cuckney School is a building that was originally constructed around 1723 and later converted into a cotton mill around 1785. It features dressed coursed rubble with flush ashlar quoins and a hipped slate roof, which has two red brick stacks at the rear. The school is located adjacent to a hillside and is set on a shallow plinth.

The building has three storeys, originally four, and consists of eight bays. The central bay has a double glazing bar casement with a splayed ashlar lintel and keystone. To the right, there are three similar single casements, also with splayed ashlar lintels. On the left side, there is a single glazing bar casement, a single glazing bar sash, a doorway with a part-glazed door, and another single glazing bar sash, all featuring splayed ashlar lintels except for the casement lintel, which is not splayed.

Above, on the second floor, is a central double glazing bar casement flanked by three similar single casements, all with splayed ashlar lintels, and the central casement includes a keystone. On the top floor, there is another central double glazing bar casement with three similar single casements on either side. Additionally, there is a single-storey, single-bay extension made of red brick and slate attached at first floor level to the left, and there are later red brick extensions at the rear.
