Description
The School House was built in 1851, designed by Joseph Jenkins of Haverfordwest, originally serving as a National School with an attached teacher’s house. It is now used as a Church Hall and a private residence. The building is in the Tudor Gothic style, constructed of squared rubble stone, featuring stone-mullioned flat-headed windows and voussoirs, with slate roofs and stone stacks.
The front of the building is picturesque and L-shaped, with a single-storey school block on the right and a gabled two-storey house projecting to the left. The school block has a west-facing stack, two three-light windows, and a door located in the angle. The door is framed by a Tudor-arched projected doorcase that extends up to a bellcote. Above the door, there is a circular light and a plaque that reads: ‘Llanrhian National School. Erected in the year of our Lord 1851 on ground granted by George Le Hunte Esq by the contributions of private individuals aided by grants from the Committee of Council on Education, the National Society and the Church Union Society of this diocese. Jacob Hughes Vicar. John Prosser and Titus Thomas Churchwardens. Maethwch hwyn yn addysg ac athrawiaeth yr Arglwydd.’
The house features a west side stack adjacent to the bellcote and has two-light windows on each floor. There is also a further range behind with a west side stack and a south end stack, along with a lower section to the south that includes an end stack. The two-window front facing east has stone voussoirs above 20th-century windows.
