"In the Churchyard the former day school was built by the Rev. Addison Browne Hemsworth, M.A. J.P., Chairman of the East Harling bench in 1851 at a cost of £200. He supported this school for many years and at one time it was attended by 35 children."

"It is now used for storage, and there is a later 19th century school in the middle of the village; but it was last used as a school during the Second World War for children evacuated from the East End of London."
