Description
The Wheel House, originally a brewhouse and now serving as a junior common room, dates back to the 15th century and has been restored and extended in the 20th century. It is constructed from ragstone rubble and features a plain tiled roof. The building is a single-storey rectangular block with a hipped roof, a stack on the west side, and louvre-dormers. The south-facing road front includes a triple arched window. Inside, the roof is supported by two large plain crown posts that are braced to ties and a collar purlin.
On the road front, there is a rubble wall to the left, approximately 5 feet high and about 30 yards long, leading to the Latin School, which includes an arched gateway and a stepped gable. To the right, there is an iron gate set in a four-centred arched gateway with a label hood and raised surround. Beyond this is an early 20th-century hipped outhouse made of rubble with a tiled roof.
