Also at the southern end of the building there is an entrance porch with a gothic arched opening and a solid timber plank door, painted in the Holdenby estate dark red. The building retains the character of a schoolhouse, due to its large windows and bell gable. It contributes to the historic character of the village and is an important building in the social history of Holdenby.
