Description

The Sunday School is a mid-19th century building located adjacent to the churchyard on the north side. It features stone walls and a slate roof, with a stone bell-cote positioned at the apex of the east gable and a rendered stack. On the south side, there is a lean-to with brick walls. The building is single storey and has one timber window with glazing bars in the north wall. The south wall is notable for its three tall gabled half-dormers, each with stone mullioned and transomed windows. This structure is included for its group value with the church.
