The school was built in 1830 in a cottage ornee style which draws together different elements of rustic cottage style from various regions and periods to create a hybrid 'cottage style'. The school was designed as an eye-catcher from Kimberely Hall and would have originally been thatched. The red brick has since been whitewashed. The windows are flat headed with drip moulding in the cottage ornee style. The school closed in 1940 and has since been converted into a domestic dwelling.
