Former school building near Holy Trinity church, Blacktoft Lane, Blacktoft.
"The old school, near the church, was built in 1851 and enlarged in 1873 after the Education Act was passed. For many years the master was Elliot Smith, who lived in Lister House and died in 1902. He was succeeded by Richard Hamlet, who wore a monocle.
In 1907 a new school was built
The old school, having formerly been home to POWS and also used as a school canteen at one time, is currently in use as a village and church hall."
