Description

The Baptist Day Schoolroom, now unoccupied, is a mid-19th century building that was extended in the late 19th century. It is constructed of stone rubble and features a slate roof with carved bargeboards at the gable ends. There are brick stacks at each gable end. The building has a rectangular plan with two rooms, the room at the west end being the late 19th-century addition. It is a single-storey structure with a three-window range of large 20-paned windows, which have raking roofs. The central six panes consist of horizontal tilting opening lights. The east gable end features a pierced trefoil stone inset above a four-paned window, which is situated over a gabled slate roof leading to a timber porch. The porch has a plank gate with short iron shafts and an inner door that has four chamfered cover strips.
