Detached four-bay two-storey national school, dated 1909, on a corner site with single-bay two-storey gabled advanced end bays, two-bay two-storey side elevations, and single-bay two-storey lean-to lower return to south. Now in use as offices. Hipped slate roofs (gabled to end bays; lean-to to return) with clay ridge tiles, lead-lined polygonal vent to apex, rendered coping, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Unpainted rendered walls with rock-faced cut-limestone quoins to corners, cut-stone date stone/plaque, and round-headed recesses to gables having block-and-start surrounds. Square-headed window openings (paired to end bays; round-headed to return) with concrete sills, red brick voussoirs, and timber casement windows. Square-headed door opening to return with red brick voussoirs, and timber panelled double doors. Set back from road in own grounds on a corner site with random rubble stone boundary wall to perimeter of site.
