Probable former almonry, used as church house, school, now village
hall with offices of Gloucestershire Trust for Nature Conservation.
C16, on core possibly of C14, possibly built in 2 stages, restored
c1844. Random coursed and dressed stone, stone slate roof, with
coped verges and ashlar stacks of C19 with twin diagonally set
flues to ridge and north end. Single long range of 2 storeys and
attic, with stepped buttresses to south end only, from
approximately halfway along length. Arched light stone mullioned
windows with square hoodmoulds, mostly 2-light on west side, and 3-
light on east side. Some replaced or inserted windows of C19 and
C20. Five window bays to each side, two C19 three-light gabled
dormers to east. North end has chamfered pointed arch doorway on
each side, south end has 4-centred archway with enriched spandrels
and square hoodmould to each side. On east side at north end a
blocked doorway with very large flush stone lintel, possibly from
original structure of which some walling appears to be incorporated
in north gable end wall.
Interior much altered in C19 but retains one 4-centred archway on
left of similar doorway on west side, possibly originally an
external doorway.
