Description
This building is a single-storey church hall constructed from rock-faced squared rubble stone, featuring a yellow terracotta chevron-moulded cornice and red and yellow brick dressings. It has a steep hipped slate roof adorned with two bands of lozenge-cut slates, a galvanized roof-vent on the right, and a missing vent on the left. A yellow-brick chimney is centrally located on the ridge of the rear wing. The layout is T-shaped.
The south front includes a central gabled stone porch with a yellow-brick chevron-moulded verge and a moulded eaves cornice. There is a pointed 4-pane sash window with a yellow-brick band, and a slate plaque from 1795 set in the apex within a brick frame that has a brick sill-band. There is a ledged door on the east side wall and another pointed sash window on the west wall, with a brick band running around the building. A slate tablet inscribed with the following text is present: "This Free School endowed by Morris Jones Esq. and another gentleman from London in the year of our lord 1795. The ground and timber were given by Mrs Margaret Pryse of Gogerddan." The main schoolroom features paired pointed 4-pane sashes on either side of the porch, surrounded by red brick. The east and west ends also have similar paired pointed sashes. The rear north wing contains a pointed sash window on both the east and west walls, which are similar but smaller and have yellow brick dressings. There is also a rear stone and slated toilet block.
The interior consists of a single room plan with plastered ceilings and walls, a boarded dado, and part-exposed arched roof-trusses supported on corbels. A later 19th-century fire-grate is located in the center of the room, and the window-heads are flat on the inside.
