Description

Norton Village School is a school building dating from around 1860. It is constructed of buff-coloured brick with blue brick dressings and features a clay tile roof with a yellow diaper pattern, pierced ridge tiles, and stone coping on the gable ends. At the rear, there is a brick lateral stack with set-offs and an octagonal shaft.

The building has a T-shaped plan, with two school rooms in the main front range, two porches, and an integral clock tower on the southeast corner. The design is in the High Victorian style.

On the exterior, there are gabled brick porches on the left and right, each with moulded round arch doorways framed by shouldered arch door frames and plank doors. The facade is arranged in a 2:3:2 bay pattern, with small shouldered arch windows located between buttresses that have set-offs. The left gable end features diagonal buttresses and a large round arch three-light window with moulded wooden mullions and transoms. The right gable has the integral clock tower with oculi and a clock face in moulded frames, topped by a steeply-pitched saddle-back roof with moulded brick eaves. The east gable includes a large five-light window with a chequer-pattern of lozenges in the tympanum of the segmental arch. The shouldered arch windows are fitted with diamond pane iron-frame windows. The rear wing is designed similarly to the main structure. The interior has not been inspected.
