Description

The Former Mamhilad School is a small primary school combined with a master's house, built from yellow brick with red brick and some stone dressings. It features a Welsh slate roof and two types of plain red tile roofs, showcasing a minimal Gothic style. The building has a T-shaped plan, with the house facing south and the school located to the right, extending towards the road and featuring a gabled porch. A further schoolroom projects at the rear. The school is single storey, while the house is two storeys.

The road elevation includes a porch with a plank door set within a Caernarvon arched head. Above the porch is an incised plaque that reads "SCHOOL 1856." Behind the porch, there is another gable with a quatrefoil window, topped with a small bell-turret that has a bell. The turret is made of brick below and features a gabled stone finial. To the right of this gable is the projecting wing, which is entirely red brick with a Welsh slate roof and may be a later extension, closely matching the original structure. This wing has two windows, which are mullion and transom casements with elliptical heads.

On the south elevation, the house has two gables of different sizes, each featuring two over two sash windows. The smaller gable is tiled, while the larger is slated. To the right, the schoolroom has two three-light mullion and transom windows.

The interior was not available for inspection at the time of the resurvey in November 1996.
