According to an 1862 list of Chapel Deed the Dhoor Wesleyan Methodist Chapel which was adjacent to the school was originally built in 1839 at a cost of £ 100 and could seat 90 worshipers.
The land where the school and the chapel was purchased in 1814 from John Kneale was acquired by a consortium of local men with the intention of building a decent house for a School House or other such purpose.
The school is today a private residence which although it retains the original bell-gable has been extended beyond the original floor-plan of the School resulting in a spacious building with a separate garage block built in a similar style.
