Description
Old School House is a pair of estate cottages that have been converted into one house. They date from the early to mid 19th century and are two storeys tall. The building is constructed of random flint with red brick quoins and features a hipped roof covered with black glazed pantiles. There is a central brick chimney stack. The windows are casement style with simple Gothic tracery in the lights. The original door at the east end of the front has been removed, and there is a late 19th-century porch added to the corresponding door on the west side.
