Main Block And Former Master'S House To Marshfield Primary School And Front Boundary Wall

The main block and former Master's house of Marshfield Primary School, along with the front boundary wall, were established in 1861 as a national school. The building is constructed from coursed squared rubble and features a Cotswold stone slate roof with ashlar stacks that have a cornice. It is a single-storey structure with a projecting gabled cross wing at each end; the right wing houses the former Master's house, which includes an attic. The facade consists of six bays, with 2-light square-headed casement windows in the center, complete with mullions and transoms. The left wing has a 3-light cross window beneath an arched head, while the right wing features a 3-light square bay window with a 2-light casement above it. There are two plank doors with arched heads located in projecting gabled porches at the re-entrant angles. The building has lateral stacks with set-offs and diagonal chimneys that display the arms and motto of New College, Oxford, a benefactor of the school. The boundary wall is made of low coped coursed rubble, with ashlar piers topped with pyramidal caps.
