Cellardyke Primary School, School Road, Cellardyke

Cellardyke Primary School, located on School Road in Cellardyke, was built in 1878 and extended in 1896. This two-storey, seven-bay, T-plan Board school features gothic porches and is constructed from squared rubble with squared snecking and stugged ashlar dressings. It has base, band, and first-floor cill courses, as well as an eaves cornice. The building includes hoodmoulded Tudor-arch doors and shouldered windows, with stop-chamfered arrises and stone mullions.

The south entrance elevation is symmetrical, with a low wall projecting to the center at ground level. The flanking bays each have a raised center tripartite window and a gothic porch in the re-entrant angle, which features a tiny blind niche in the steeply-pitched gablehead. There is a timber door and a narrow light to the inner return at ground level. The center bay at the first floor has a relief carved panel that reads 'ERECTED 1878/ENLARGED 1896', topped by a scrolled broken pediment and flanked by two closely aligned bipartite windows. The advanced outer bays have M-gables, each with a raised center tripartite window at both ground and first floor, the latter being slightly wider, and a timber-louvered opening in the gablehead.

The east elevation features two raised center tripartite windows at ground level and two additional tripartite windows at the first floor. The north rear elevation is symmetrical with largely regular fenestration, including two advanced piend-roofed bays at the center and further piend-roofed outer bays. There are later flat-roofed single-storey projections to the right and left of the center. The west elevation mirrors the east elevation.

The windows throughout the building feature horizontal 3- and 4-pane glazing patterns at ground and first floors, with 6-, 8-, and 10-pane glazing patterns elsewhere, all in timber sash and case. The roof is covered with grey slates, and the building has ashlar-coped skews with flat skewputts. Decorative cast-iron downpipes with rainwater hoppers and fixings, along with square-section gutters, complete the exterior.
