Description
Bisterne School House is an early 19th-century estate cottage located in Bisterne. The building features pebbledashed cob on a brick plinth and has a thatched roof that sweeps down onto a timber verandah. It is one and a half storeys high and consists of three bays. The front of the house has a roof that slopes down to the timber verandah, which is supported by paired square section posts with capitals.
In the central bays, there are two arches, while the end bays feature a flat span and an arch on the outside. The left-hand end bay has a ledged door leading outside, and the right-hand end bay has a ledged door on the inside along with a two-light casement window outside. The central bays also have two-light casements. The casement windows are notable for their leaded lights arranged in unusual geometric patterns. The roof is hipped, with separate hipped ends for the verandah, and there is a central ridge stack topped with two strap-work patterned Gothic pots.
