Formerly the village school. It is built largely of chalk, and dates from the first half of the 17th century (the date 1617 appears above the door). The roof is of local 'slates' - thin slabs of some local sedimentary rock, rather like the 'Horsham slates' of Sussex or the 'Collyweston slates' of the area around Stamford, Lincs.
