Description
Wingfield School is a village school built between 1849 and 1852. It is constructed from coursed rubble stone with ashlar dressings and features a plain concrete tiled roof. The building is single-storey with a two-window front. A large gabled porch, which now serves as the school office, has a Tudor-arched ribbed door with a hoodmould and an inscription above that records the building and the opening of the school. The steep roof is adorned with wavy barge boards, and there are two-light mullioned windows on either side, each with cusped lights and hoodmoulds. The left and right returns are gable ends that feature three-light square-headed Perpendicular-style windows with hoodmoulds and well-crafted cusped barge boards. At the rear, there is a lobby that now functions as the school kitchen, which includes a chamfered Tudor-arched doorway. There are 20th-century additions to the rear. This building is a good example of a small village school.
