Description
The school and schoolhouse, now serving as the village hall, was built in 1849. It features coursed, squared rubble with a tiled, gable-ended roof, complemented by stone copings and shaped kneelers. A two-staged ashlar stack with moulded caps rises from the west eaves of the schoolroom, along with other irregularly placed brick stacks. The house forms a cross-wing to the schoolroom, which has a porch in the re-entrant angle. The schoolroom is a single storey with three bays, and it includes a square-headed stone mullioned window. The gable facing the road has a stone window with a 4-centred head and plain mullions. The porch doorway features a moulded 4-centred head and an original ribbed door.
