Place & story
The schoolhouse dated 1822
The former schoolhouse stands on raised ground behind a private lane. Its projecting porch carries a granite date stone for 1822. An elliptical arch leads into the porch, where a granite doorway surround encloses a door and lattice-glazed fanlight. The architectural survey distinguishes this stone detailing from replacement windows, chimney stacks and wall finishes. [2]
A terrace with a missing end
Across the small settlement, a short terrace of single-storey houses is dated to around 1820. Split-level basements respond to the ground, while limewashed rubble walls face the road. The survey suggests that a projecting southern end was lost: surviving masonry indicates that the group may once have been symmetrical. That reconstruction remains an architectural interpretation.
