projecting gabled wing on the left and in the angle of this and the main
range a gabled porch. Ledged door in shouldered arched opening with curved
sided cusped triangular window over. In the wing, a 3-light stone mullioned
window with arched lights and cast iron glazing on ground floor. Similar
2-light window on first floor, and single light window in gable. Right of
the porch, on ground floor a similar 2-light window. In attic a gabled
dormer with similar window. The school has a projecting gabled wing at each
end, each with a porch - matching that of No. 38, on its inner side. In the
centre of the central section, a gabled dormer with date plaque. Below this
a 3-light stone mullioned and transomed window - the centre light raised,

The left gable has a central buttress, terminating in an octagonal shaft
with moulded cornice - above gabled apex. Two 3-light stone mullioned and
transomed windows with arched lights and cast iron glazing. The right gable
has no central buttress, but a 5-light stone mullioned and transomed window
with arched lights and cast iron glazing. Single light window over, in
gable. Good unspoiled example of a Victorian village school
