Old School And Attached Walls

The Old School, now converted into two cottages, was built in 1841 by Paxton. It is constructed from coursed squared gritstone with gritstone dressings and quoins, topped with a stone slate roof. The building features chamfered coped gables with plain kneelers and cross finials, and has two ashlar stacks in the pitch of the roof. The structure is L-shaped and single storey.

On the south elevation, there is a projecting gabled bay with a gabled porch that has a four-centred arched entrance and side windows, flanked by two similar windows. The return wall to the east includes a 2-light square section flush mullion window. The wing to the right has a central doorway with a four-centred arch and a half-glazed door, accompanied by 2-light square section flush mullion windows.

Attached to the south are gritstone walls that once enclosed the playground, featuring steep chamfered copings and gate piers topped with pyramid caps.
