Details Former school, later in residential use and now disused. It was built in 1875, possibly by Alexander Tod, architect, and is within the village of Carbrach (NJ32NE0035) replacing an earlier school building to the west. It is first shown on the 2nd edition OS map as a T-plan building within an enclosure with a rectangular-plan building to the rear. Current OS maps show the building to the rear has been extended. The former school building is single-storey with porches and a slate roof and has an 1875 datestone. It is constructed from whinstone with sandstone dressings, 12-pane sash and case windows, ashlar chimneys with moulded copes and rubble boundary walls with iron railings. Photographic recording was carried out in 2019 ahead of proposed conversion to residential use.
