Description
The Bartholomew Room is a market hall and schoolroom, now serving as a parish hall, dating from around 1700 and restored in the 1970s. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble, featuring limestone ashlar quoins and dressings, and has a hipped stone slate roof with a stone lateral stack.
The building stands two storeys high and has a round-arched doorway with a carved lion rampant tablet above it, set in a gabled front. There are similar blocked entries that originally led to the ground-floor market, located in the side walls which have 20th-century cross windows on the first floor.
The building was established under the will of John Bartholomew, who died in 1700, and left £350 for the education of village boys.
