Description

The building has two storeys and includes three two-light windows with decorative glazing bars, raised surrounds, and central chamfered mullions.

The School House occupies a key position at the west end of the village, set back behind a rounded front boundary wall that is about 5 feet high. There is a small cast iron gate, aligned with the doorway, featuring lattice work on the lower rail.
