The Old School and Adjoining Wall and Entrance to North

The Old School House, now a dwelling, was built in 1856. It is constructed of light red brick with yellow sandstone dressings and features a steeply pitched slate roof with overhanging eaves. The gabled return elevations have decorated bargeboards, and there is a rendered stack on the right side, along with a gabled bell-cote without a bell on the left. The building is two stories high and has three bays, with a 2-light mullioned window featuring plate glass. The central entrance has a depressed arch doorway with a 19th-century plank door that has studs. On the left return gable, which faces the road, there is a tablet with a crest inscribed "E.P. 1856," indicating that Edward Prior of Halse Manor funded the school. The left return elevation connects to School Cottage through an ogee-headed opening in a red sandstone coursed rubble wall, which is less than a meter long on either side of the ogee-headed plank door with studs.
