Description
Cameron School is an early 19th-century parish school that remains fairly unaltered. It consists of a two-storey schoolhouse and a single-storey school, both built with droved coursers and featuring broached ashlar dressings. The schoolhouse, originally a single-storey structure, was raised to two storeys by Gillespie of St Andrews in 1880. It has a three-window front with a poorly maintained central boarded porch and unsightly plumbing on the left side. The building is L-shaped, with a harled wing at the back that includes a lean-to outshot in the re-entrant angle. The roof is slated with straight skews and end stacks, the right-hand stack having been rebuilt in brick. The rendered rear wing has one window in the gable. The school has a door on the left and three windows on the right, with a slated roof featuring a ventilator and a window with a bracketed cornice on the east gable. There is also a later parallel harled rear wing with a bipartite window in the east gable, two windows, and a recessed door on the north side. The roof of this wing is also slated with bracketed eaves.
