Description
The Old School House is a former school and schoolmaster's house, now a residential property, dated 1852. It is constructed of yellow brick with limestone dressings, featuring gable copings and kneelers. The roof is tiled and includes ornamental bands of fishscale tiles. The building is designed in a Tudor style and has an L-plan layout, with a full-height hall in a gabled projecting cross wing to the right and the schoolmaster's house to the left. It has one storey and an attic.
The mullion windows have been lowered and feature flood-moulds and lozenge-patterned cast iron glazing bars. The hall includes a three-light window on the ground floor and a pair of arched lights in the attic. A bellcote on the ridge has a pyramid roof supported by classical pilasters. There is a porch in the angle that is gabled to the south over a former doorway, with the present door located beneath a lintel inscribed "Feed my Lambs." The left-hand range has two windows, a three-light and a two-light, along with a gabled dormer at the rear. The building has been extended one bay to the right, which includes a similar two-light window.
