Notes	School and schoolmaster's house, now 2 houses. Dated 1864. Coursed, squared Devonian limestone rubble with large dressed quoins of the same material. Slated roofs. Large red-brick chimney on centre of ridge at the house; top brick courses project to form a cap; 5 round pots. Similar chimney on front wall of school, adjoining the house. Plan: Double-fronted schoolmaster's house to left. L-shaped school to right, abutting the house; its right gable fronts Brixham road. Exterior: Large entrance-porch in the angle of the L. 1 storey; with garret on the house. Tudor-style. House is 2 windows wide with centre doorway having a shallow segmental arch; chamfered jambs, chamfered cornice; plank door with strap-hinges. To right a window with chamfered surround and cornice; 2-light wood casement with 6 panes per light. To left a square bay window with pent-roof; 1 large window with plain 3-light wood casement at front; similar single-light windows at sides. Garret has 2 dormer gables of slightly differing design; plain bargeboards, windows with chamfered surrounds. Wood casements, 2 lights to left, 1 to right, both with 2 panes per light. Main feature of the school is a large gabled wing to left with 2 tall chamfered windows; late C20 small-paned wood glazing, evidently re-designed when an upper floor was inserted. In the gable a stone plaque with monogram (probably of Lord Churston) having coronet over and date 1864. Entrance-porch to right has plank door with strap-hinges facing Alston Lane and, in the gable facing Brixham Road, a chamfered window with 2-light wood casement having 4 panes per light. On the roof the school bell is wooden bell-turret with pitched slated roof. To right of porch is a large slate-hung late C20 dormer. The right-hand section of the school has 2 pairs of chamfered windows flanking a chimney-breast with off-sets; 2-light wood casements with 6 panes per light. Built up against the gable to Brixham Road is a small original lean-to. This has a plank door facing Alston Lane and a chamfered window facing Brixham Road; the latter contains a 3-light wood casement with 4 panes per light. The garden walls and railings are listed separately (qv). Listing NGR: SX9009755749	Facts
