Description
Threefold is a school and school house, now used as offices, designed by G.E. Street in 1856, with a later 19th-century extension. The building is constructed of coursed squared limestone banded with ironstone and features a plain-tile roof with stone lateral and ridge stacks. It has an L-plan layout, is two stories tall, and has an attic, with a three-window range.
The entrance includes a chamfered pointed arched doorway located to the right of center, which has alternate limestone and ironstone blocks in the archway, a part-glazed plank door with an ornamental hinge, and a hood mould. To the right of the doorway is a 2-light chamfered stone mullion window, and there are similar 3-light windows flanking a large projecting lateral stack to the left of center. A hipped dormer with a similar 2-light window is positioned to the right of center. The building has a plinth with a batter and stone-coped gables with kneelers. There are wings to the left and right of center, with the left wing likely being a later addition. The interior has not been inspected.
