Description
The building is a schoolroom for a Methodist chapel, dating from around the 1860s. It features slurried rubble walls with granite dressings and a scantle slate hipped roof. The gutters are made of cast iron with an ogee section. The schoolroom has a rectangular plan and includes a later 19th-century lean-to at the back on the left side.
The exterior is a single storey with a symmetrical front that has two windows and a wide round-headed central doorway. The original entrance consists of a pair of four-panel doors topped with a traceried fanlight. The windows, dating from the early 20th century, are two-light casements with small-paned top-lights and horned sashes featuring glazing bars, all set in their original openings. The interior has not been inspected.
In front of the schoolroom, rubble walls enclose a rectangular garden and continue as road frontage walls for the chapel grounds. The walls flanking the chapel gateway have a rock-faced granite ashlar plinth, and the square-on-plan granite monolithic gate-piers at the chapel gateway are topped with ramped pyramidal caps.
