The Old Grammar School and attached iron railings

Former school, a mainly C19 building reflecting its C17 origins. Of coursed rubble with some ashlar dressings and tooled quoins; slate roof. The former school to left and schoolmaster's house to right. The school has a gable-end facade, two storeys, cross-framed windows, 2-light to first floor, 3-light to ground floor; two incised plaques record work in 1862 below and 1898 above. Lower narrow recessed lean-to side wing to right with small casement windows with ashlar surrounds. This adjoins the projecting house at right, also with gable-end facade, which has a tall tiered rubble lateral part external stack with terracotta pots, a single 3-light casement to the main facade over a canted ground floor bay window. Set back to right a 2-window range and further set back to right a separately gabled cross wing, also a 2-window range. In the angle between school and house is a portico of rock-faced stone with parapet with orb finials, segmental arches and broad corner column. Side elevation to school has a Tudor-arched doorway with boarded door, large ground-floor cross-framed windows under relieving arches and a mullioned first floor window. Extending across street frontage is a rubble wall with two gateways, one gate surviving, with piers and capstones and a stretch of iron railings with spear finials.
