Impossible now to stand far enough away to photograph the entire front elevation since the area between the school and the road (on a higher level) is filled with brambles and other dense vegetation. The school, which opened in 1875, exhibits an imposing and idiosyncratic architectural style, not at all what might be expected in an out-of-the way rural community. "An oddly personal design in rock-faced grey stone with Bath stone windows gathered under big over-arches, suggesting the Romanesque, although the windows are mullion-and-transom, and the bellcote Gothic." (Lloyd, Orbach and Scourfield, The Buildings of Wales: Pembrokeshire, 2004)
