Long Description:
I talked with a couple of old boys, both of whom said they spent their first year at this school, before crossing the road to boys only school. Both agreed that it was formerly a girls only school.
Current use by County Library and pre-school playgroup.
Stone built. From what the old boys told me, I would estimate it closed in 1950s.
