Description
The sea wall of the former school house in Maker-with-Rame is likely from the 17th or 18th century, with some later alterations. The section of the wall made of coursed sandstone is included in the listing, specifically the seaward wall and part of the right-hand return, which are also constructed from sandstone. The seaward-facing wall features a series of large openings with sandstone piers and timber lintels between them. Some of these openings have been partly blocked with later masonry, and smaller windows have been added. The remainder of the building has undergone significant alterations and is not included in the listing.
