Description

This is a former primary school, now converted into two houses. It was built in the mid-19th century with fine ashlar stonework, a cornice, a parapet, and moulded coping. The building has a slate roof and, while now two storeys high, presents a single-storey appearance. It features three tall windows with stone mullions, transoms, and drip moulds. There are two doorways in square panels; the left-hand one is original with a shedded panel door and a drip mould, while the right-hand one is more modern. This building is of group value.
