Description
Dilton Marsh Junior School is a junior school built in the 1840s, probably designed by T.H. Wyatt. The building is constructed of coursed rubble stone and features a fishscale tiled roof with coped verges and brick stacks. It has an L-shaped plan and is a single storey.
The main range includes a gabled porch with a pointed doorway to the left, flanked by one single and two three-light chamfered mullioned casements. There is a blocked Tudor-arched doorway to the right. The left wing projects and features a four-light mullioned and transomed window at the gable end, along with a gabled porch with a pointed doorway and a gabled bellcote at the apex of the gable. A parallel wing set back to the left has a three-light mullioned and transomed window at its gable end, topped with a trefoil, and an ashlar octagonal stack. The left return has a three-light mullioned and transomed window with a gable above.
At the rear of the main range, there are two two-light mullioned windows in full dormers, and the gable end of the right wing features a four-light mullioned and transomed window. There are 20th-century additions attached to the rear. The interior retains original joinery and open roof trusses, which are partly visible beneath inserted ceilings. This school is a good example of a village school, built next to the Church of Holy Trinity and sharing similar architectural details, particularly in its roofing.
