The school is marked on the First Edition of the six-inch Ordnance Survey map, so obviously dates from before the survey in 1870. Now a private house, it has been extended and renamed Balnagreen. If this is from the Gaelic Baile na Greine, it is well chosen, because it means something like' sunny place' and it has a magnificent view across the glen.
