Description
The Old Sunday School is a disused building that was undergoing restoration in 1984. It was built by subscription in 1788, with a plaque indicating this, and was enlarged in 1908, also by subscription, as noted on central plaques. The building features limeswashed stucco with ashlar dressings and a roof covered in Welsh slates.
It is a single-storey structure with a four-bay center flanked by single-storey, single-bay wings. The central section has steps leading up to two six-panel doors, one of which is a reconstruction, beneath a radial fanlight with glazing bars set in tooled ashlar architraves. Each end has a Venetian window; the center features a 16-pane sash window with radial glazing at the top, flanked by 8-pane lights, all within a tooled architrave. The roof is hipped.
The wings have a plinth and steps leading to a 20th-century reconstructed six-panel door set under a blocked elliptical arch. The coping is ramped towards the center and topped with a ball finial, concealing the hipped roof to the left. The rear of the building also has two similar Venetian windows.
