West facade has cross-wing at left-hand end having chamfered mullioned and transomed window with hood and with 3 upper lights and 5 lower lights. Further right are 3 8-light mullioned and transomed windows. Adjoining at the north is an addition of 1906 in a similar style.

The entrance is to the right, into a porch linking the school with school house. The door has a chamfered surround with Tudor-arched head, 3 mullioned lights over, and inscribed date '1874'. The school house to the right is of 2 storeys with hipped roofs. At the right in a cross-wing with a 2-storey timber canted bay window, having a band of slate hanging, and rising above eaves level with its own hipped roof. The main part of the house facade has an 8-light chamfered mullioned and transomed window on the ground floor and 4-light and 3-light mullioned windows on the 1st floor. In the angle with the cross-wing is a porch, partly timbered and under a slate roof.
