Description

The Old Schoolhouse is a cottage built around 1800. It is constructed of brick with patterned headers and features a hipped pantile roof. The building has a square plan and stands two storeys high, with three windows on the front. The central doorcase is plain and has a close-boarded door. On either side of the door are single 19th-century two-light Yorkshire sash windows with segmental heads. Above the door, there is a central plain sash window, flanked by single 19th-century glazing bar sash windows, also with segmental heads.

It experiences an average of 35 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 56% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
