Description
Northleaze Primary School is a village school and school house, now functioning as a primary school, constructed in 1860 by James Wilson of Bath. The building is built of coursed, squared rubble with freestone dressings, covered by a slate roof with rubble and ashlar stacks. Designed in an early Gothic style, the main schoolroom consists of five bays to the left, with two projecting gabled wings at one end. One wing features a clock and a decorative octagonal turret supported by corbels and topped with an ashlar spire. It has three-light trefoil-headed and stepped lancet windows; the three windows on the right have gables adorned with quatrefoils. A former school house is incorporated as a two-story, projecting, gabled wing; its ground floor features a three-light canted bay window with a pierced quatrefoil parapet, and a three-light window is positioned above. A gabled porch is located in the re-entrant angle, featuring a pointed and chamfered ashlar doorway and a plank door with strap hinges. A similar porch is set back on the right side of the building. A later 19th-century, two-bay, single-story extension was added to the far left.
