Located in Upper Allan Street, the school was opened by Mr Alan Macpherson, chairman of the school board, on 19th August, 1879. It was built, at a cost of £6000, on glebe land belonging to the established church. The school was enlarged in 1909, but closed in 2009 when a new school campus opened. The building is Category B listed and stands within a conservation area. It is currently for sale, but any development of the site is unlikely to see any substantial demolition of the existing buildings.
