Description

The Cangle County Primary School is a school building constructed in 1876 and extended in 1886 by Frank Whitmore. Originally designed in an L-shape, it was enlarged to form an E-plan. The building is made of red brick and features slate roofs.

The exterior showcases a single-storey west front with five gabled projections, each containing three cusped lancets, with the central lancet being taller. The second gable from the north has sash windows without glazing bars, indicating the headmistress's house. To the south, there is a square clock tower, with clock faces positioned under gablets at the base of a polygonal spire. Further wings extend to the north and south from the center, with the headmaster's house located at the east end of the south wing. The interior has not been inspected.

Local climate

The Cangle County Primary School sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 710 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 85% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 71% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 54% of listed buildings. Of these, 17 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
