Above the garage door just to the left of the tall building is a stone inscribed 'Day School 1856'. All these buildings appear to be in place on a map surveyed 1881, but there is no indication of a school here, and the row to the left was apparently divided up into separate dwellings, as now. Possibly the former school built about 1870 further down the road supplanted it. The house on the right is called Dorset Lodge.
