Village School And Pumphouse

The Village School and Pumphouse, now converted into a house, likely dates from around 1849 when the voluntary school was established. It is constructed from whitewashed rendered sandstone and features a slate roof with deep eaves, gabled ends, and a divided chimney stack with paired shafts and brick stacks on the south side. The building has a rectangular plan, with a porch on the north side and a projection on the south side that contains the village pump.

The exterior is a single storey. The south elevation, which faces the road, has two large small-pane transomed windows on either side and a smaller window between the halves of the divided stack. The pumphouse section includes deep eaves and a louvred round-headed window on the gable end, with a door to the pumphouse located on the left (west) return. The south elevation also features a gabled porch and similar windows on the north elevation. The right (east) return has a round-headed louvred window and still retains the school bell. The building is part of a group at Pye Corner, alongside Lantern Cottage. The interior has not been inspected.
