Description
The School House is a former school and schoolhouse, now a private house, built in 1850 and enlarged in 1909. It features ashlar stone and a Cotswold stone slate roof. The Gothic style school section to the south has scattered stone stacks and a bellcote on the coped west gable, which has a triangular half saddlestone at the base projecting over a small open-ended niche. On the west gable wall, there is a quatrefoil plaque with the initials EC and the date 1850. This single-storey section has three windows, which are two-light trefoils with hoodmoulds, positioned on either side of a large gabled porch to the left of centre, along with a three-light wooden casement to the right. The schoolhouse to the north is in a similar style, forming an 'L' shape with the school and linked by a single-storey pointed archway, which is now glazed in and has battlements above. The schoolhouse is two storeys tall with two gable stacks and features two paired trefoil windows, similar to those on the ground floor, along with a central gabled porch that is coped and has a saddlestone.
