Map

October 2011. Norfolk Rural School Survey.
Built in 1845 this T-shaped plan, white-painted-brick school has had little alteration to it. It is unknown if the infant's wing attached to the rear was built at the same time as the rest of the building or slightly later. The closure date of the school is unknown but it is likely to have been pre-1947. The building is now used as an annexe to the adjoining house.
