Chilvers Coton Free School

Chilvers Coton Free School is a school building founded by Lady Elizabeth Newdigate in 1735. The west range, originally from the 18th century, was remodeled in the 1890s, while the south range was built around 1766 to designs by Sir Roger Newdigate of Arbury Hall and also altered in the 1890s. There were extensions added to the rear (north) in 1893 and 1897. The building features squared and coursed sandstone with ashlar facades, while the late 19th-century extensions are made of brick. The roofs are gabled Welsh slate, with a hipped corrugated asbestos roof on the south range, and there are brick ridge, end, and lateral stacks.

The south elevation is two storeys high and consists of a seven-bay range with a segmental-arched entrance to a tall, slightly projecting central bay. The range to the right has stone lintels over 2-light first-floor casements with glazing bars and 20th-century ground-floor windows. The range to the left originally had windows that were deepened into full-height windows and features a moulded stone cornice. The right end wall has stone lintels over 2-light casements with glazing bars and a tripartite window at the rear. The west range is a one-storey, four-window range with late 19th-century gabled dormers above three tall windows set in square-headed architraves. There is a stone lintel over a mid-18th-century six-panelled door to the left, along with a 20th-century window added to a late 19th-century bay on the left.

At the rear, there are two late 19th-century wings with chamfered segmental arches over tripartite windows, one of which retains cast-iron glazing-bar windows. Inside, the school features late 19th-century trusses, an 18th-century plank door to the left, and a room in the center of the south range with chamfered piers and raised imposts supporting a quadripartite vault. A drawing of the south range by Sir Roger Newdigate is held in the Warwick Records Office.
