Description

The Village School, dated 1875, is located on Village Street in Crathorne. It is constructed from polychrome brick with stone dressings and features steeply pitched slated roofs with sawtooth ridge pieces, overhanging eaves, and exposed rafter ends. The building consists of two one-storey sections, with the taller section featuring two steeply gabled porches that have timbered fronts jettied over boarded doors, and continuous glazed sides above a stone-coped tall double plinth. There is a single plinth surrounding the main building. The windows are stone mullioned with glazing bars and sloped cills, including three stepped single windows at the south end. Additionally, there is a one-storey flat-roofed north wing and a tall brick chimney, which is stone-capped, located to the north. The building also displays polychrome bands at different eaves levels.
