The C19th Grade II-listed Old Schoolroom at the south east end of the former Mount School Primary School site. This, the original school building was opened in 1826. It was designed by W. M. Fowler. The extension behind the house dates from 1838 and the bell tower (just visible) from 1877. Part of the new Parson's Mount sheltered housing complex, built in phases between 2014-2017, is visible behind. The Old Schoolroom now houses residential accommodation, and perhaps, administrative offices associated with the Parson's Mount complex. Immediately ahead , though not visible, is part of the boundary wall of the Parish Church's graveyard and Mounts Close, a footpath linking Appleton Gate and King's Road.
