The schoolroom adjoins the United Reformed Church; both date from the 1850's, and the church was "built as a Free Episcopal Church ... for parishioners incensed by local ritualistic clergy" (Cherry & Pevsner). This view is from Tessier Gardens and shows the triple windows with trefoil-shaped heads http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/details/default.aspx?id=390663 .
