Ysgol Lawnt

Large detached house in Regency style, converted to a school. Wholly rendered with traces of scoring; hipped Welsh slate roof of shallow pitch with terracotta ridge tiles and deep overhanging boarded bracketed eaves; chimneys removed. Plan of rectangular central block with stepped back narrower cross rear wing on uphill side; separately roofed narrow wing parallel with frontage on downhill side with further extensions here and to rear which also incorporate former outbuildings. Former garden frontage has a 3-window range, formerly 12-pane sashes to first floor, one at centre retained. Ground floor formerly probably had tripartite sash windows like others at The Lawn, now replaced; central flat-roofed corniced porch with blind recesses with sills either side of doorway; small-pane fixed glazing to side walls of porch, probably mostly original on downhill side. Uphill side elevation retains tripartite windows to main block and 4-window range of mostly 12-pane sashes to rear wing; first floor 12-pane sash windows also retained on downhill side elevation.

Although converted to a school, the interior retains its plan of a central corridor with rooms leading off and to rear a staircase which has turned newel posts, stick balusters and a ramped handrail. Some rooms retain plaster cornice mouldings, moulded plaster panels and brackets, 6-panelled doors with architraves, panelled reveals, shutters.
