Description
The Old School House is a village and estate school, now a private house, dated 1863 and marked with "IJ" on shield plaques for the Inigo-Jones estate. It is constructed of coursed rubble with freestone dressings and features a slate roof with coped raised verges on moulded kneelers, along with diagonal ashlar stacks that have a moulded cornice. The building is two storeys high and consists of four bays, with three-light casement windows on the ground floor and two-light windows on the first floor, all featuring plain chamfered mullions and surrounds under dripmoulds. There is a two-storey gabled porch located off-centre to the left, which includes a moulded and four-centre headed doorway, a cartouche, and a two-light window above. The Old School House is part of an intact and unaltered mid-Victorian estate village.
