Description
The building is a two-storey, three-window house that was once the Schoolmaster's house at the former British School. It is constructed of rubble stone with freestone dressings and quoins, topped by a renewed slate roof featuring coursed stone end stacks. At the time of inspection, all the windows were boarded up. The front of the house has three windows and a central doorway, which features a fielded-panel door set within a round-headed arch that includes a keystone. There is an asymmetrical element created by a gable above the left-hand window. The right gable end has a small window inserted in the upper right, with brick jambs. Additionally, there is a gabled rear wing that has a lower ridge line and an end coursed-stone stack.
