Staircase Villa was built around 1825 as the village school. The architect was likely John Montier of Tunbridge Wells. It is a one-story building with two windows. The building is constructed with imitation timber-framing set upon a rusticated stone base. It has a tiled roof and casement windows. A porch features an elaborate timbered gable.
