The New Jersey classifications of towns, townships, boros and cities can be very confusing. Even though, this area is now the Township of Long Hill...the boro is called Millington.

This website has an extensive history of the building with additional (old) photos: (visit link)

The date of 1882 is the first known date that the school has been documented...but it's actual date of construction has been lost.
