| Description | This school was built in 1871 by Norman Shaw, with an extension dated 1879. It is built of snecked hammer dressed stone, with ashlar dressings, and has a Welsh blue slate roof. It is a single storey high and is built in Gothic Revival Style. It is L shaped, with a gabled porch set in the angle. This porch has two pointed arched doorways with a plinth, hoodmoulds and angle buttresses with offsets, and a 4 x 4 light mullioned and transomed window. The original school is of seven bays, with a tall gable set in the second and third bays, which has two tall multi light windows articulated by offset buttresses. Each bay has a deep window embrasure alternately blind or with a mullioned window. The school has coped gables with kneelers and a stack with an embattled cornice. The right hand return has two tall pointed arched windows of two lights, with buttresses between and at right angles with many offsets. The added wing has a weathered plinth and three bays of 3 x 3 light mullioned and transomed windows. There is a coped buttressed gable to the right.
The interior was opened c.1984 into one large L shaped space with an inserted false ceiling. One wall has a plaque inscribed: ‘This wing of the schools was built in the year 1879 as a memorial of the Revd. Albert Hudson, first vicar of this parish’. |
