Description

The Old School House is a mid to late 19th-century T-shaped building designed to resemble a timber-framed structure. The central portion has two storeys and features two windows. The ground floor is constructed of red brick with grey headers, which was once painted, while the upper section is faced with roughcast. The first floor jetties out and is adorned with a scalloped pendant pelmet. The building has two gables and a tiled roof, with casement windows throughout. Each wing of the building is single storey with two windows, and there are two doorways positioned at an angle. The porches are similar, each containing one doorway at the angles of the T.
