Map

April 2011. Norfolk Rural Schools Survey.
A two-storey height building running along Dodd's Hill Road, built in an 1850's style. The main building is composed of a single classroom and a large hall, with a two-storey House attached to the western end. There is a joined, but separate extension to eastern end of the building, containing a single classroom, built in the same style as the rest of the building, and it is likely to have built only a few years after the original was. There are several 1960's flat-roofed extensions to this building, which obscure the vast majority of the southern frontage of the original building.
