What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey former teacher's house, built c.1890, having gable-fronted half dormer and recent lean-to conservatory to front (south-east). Recent flat roof addition to rear (north-west). Pitched slate roof with uPVC clad eaves, rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron and uPVC rainwater goods. Rendered walls with plinth having cast-iron vents and raised render quoins to front elevation. Exposed rubble limestone wall to ground floor to interior of porch. Square-headed window openings with rendered sills throughout, having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash and uPVC windows. Moulded rendered block-and-start surrounds and keystones to half dormer windows. Square-headed door opening to interior of porch having red brick voussoirs and exposed timber lintel with double-leaf glazed timber doors and overlight. Rendered enclosing walls with chamfered copings and square-profile rendered gate piers with chamfered caps.

This modestly proportioned former teacher’s house, set back from the road within the former school grounds has retained much of its historic form. Its render details and central gablet with paired timber sliding sash windows add to its character. It is an interesting reminder of the housing provisions which were made for school masters in the nineteenth century.
