Full description

November 2011. Norfolk Rural Schools Survey.
Constructed in 1855, this building is likely to have clay lump walls, but it has been rendered so it is difficult to tell. The roof is covered with Norfolk pantiles, but it has probably been re-roofed at some point. It has a single porch with a door that is central to the south-western wall. It is unknown when the school closed.
See (S1) for further information.
