What is recorded here

Detached five-bay single-storey former national school, built 1892, and now in use as a National Training and Development Centre. The building is constructed in semi-coursed rubble granite with brick dressings. To the north is a recent modern addition. The south gable has a triple lancet window and is surmounted by a small stone finial. The timber sheeted door has a six pane fanlight and all are set within a flat-headed opening with a brick flat arch. The door sits in a brick gabled bay which projects slightly. Above the door is a small inscribed stone plaque which reads ‘Ferrybank School 1892’. Window openings have shallow pointed arch-headed openings with six over nine timber sash frames. The pitched roof is slated, with serrated clay ridge tiles, cast-iron rainwater goods and projecting eaves course. The brick chimneystack has a corbelled cap and clay pots. The building is set in a small lane and is positioned behind a low rubble granite wall.
