Description
The Church Hall, formerly known as the National School, was built in 1846, as indicated by the datestone. It is constructed of stone rubble with granite quoins and has a rendered right side. The roof is covered with bitumen-coated rag slate and features gable ends, while there is a granite ashlar stack at one end. The building has an overall rectangular shape, with the entrance located near the front on the left side.
The exterior is a low single-storey structure with a gable end facing the road. A central battered buttress supports the front, and above it is the datestone that reads 'National School 1846'. There are two two-centred arched openings for windows on the right and left sides, and a plank door serves as the entrance towards the front on the left side. The interior has not been inspected.
