Description
The Old School House is a building that originally served as a school and school house, now converted into a residential home. It features a dated plaque from 1846 on the porch gable. The structure is made of red brick with burnt brick headers and has steeply pitched slated roofs with corbelled parapet gables. The house has a two-storey cross-wing on the left side, while the main school room has been converted into a one-storey space with an attic.
At the junction of the two roofs, there is a chimney stack with four grouped octagonal shafts, each with moulded caps and bases. The porch on the left side includes octagonal stone buttresses with ogee caps and the dated plaque is set in a shaped gable. The entrance features a vertical panelled door within a four-centre arch.
The wing has two three-light iron lattice light casement windows, and the main range has two large transomed casement windows with chamfered reveals and a cambered arch, along with two 20th-century casement dormer windows. The building also has a brick plinth and a plain brick cornice.
