Langton Public School, Main Street, Gavinton

Langton Public School, located on Main Street in Gavinton, was built in 1874 and has undergone some alterations since. It is a single-storey building with an attic and features a T-plan design with Tudor detailing. The southern elevation is constructed from stugged ashlar with polished dressings, while the other sides are made of squared and snecked stugged sandstone ashlar. The building has stop-chamfered arrises.

The southern elevation, facing North Street, is symmetrical. It has a central projecting gabled bay with a tripartite mullioned window, which has had its cill recently lowered, and above it is a rectangular plaque that reads "Langton Public School 1874." At the apex of the gable, there is a corbelled ashlar birdcage bellcote. Each inner bay features a bipartite window, and there are advanced porches at the outer bays, each with a boarded door that has wrought-iron ornamental hinges. Above these doors, there is a corbelled part-gabled parapet with a ribbon; the left door has a carving that states "By industry we prosper."

On the northeast elevation, there are three bipartite windows arranged regularly. The east and west elevations each have a mullioned tripartite window in a gabled bay, along with a window in the gablehead. The windows are timber lying-pane style, and the building has a slate roof with a central diamond-set ashlar, coped stack. The skews are sawtooth coped with pedimented skewputts.

Inside, the school features a modern floor division and exposes timber trussing and boarding.

The boundary wall, gatepiers, and railings are made of stugged ashlar with rounded coping. The gatepiers, which are square in plan with chamfered arrises, provide access to vehicular gates on the east and a pedestrian gate on the west. The property is enclosed by decorative wrought and cast-iron railings and gates.
