Detached three-bay two-storey former National School, built 1826, now in use as two private dwellings. Roughcast rendered walls. Hipped slate roof with cast-iron rainwater goods. Dormer windows with timber corbels to eaves. Square-headed window openings with stone sills. Original diamond pane window to south-east gable.
This former boys school exhibits an interesting architectural design, and retains some of the original external features. It was designed as part of the planned estate village of Moynalty in the 1820s, and is similar in execution and detailing to many of the buildings in the village. The girls school is located at the east end of the village.
