DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The main building is double height and was built by the Papworth Hall Estate in 1901 to educate the children on the estate. It is of brick construction and was extended throughout the 1900s which added three single storey extensions. There is a detached single storey brick and tiled pitched roof building at the rear of the site which is believed would originally have been a toilet block. The property was most recently used as a county music school (Use Class F1) and has been vacant for several years. The property requires extensive refurbishment and upgrading.
The main building sits centrally and set back from the road with a tarmac playground to the front and rear, with the front previously used as off-road parking. The toilet block is situated along the rear boundary of the site. The site has an established hedge along the road frontage and generally hedges and greenery around the boundaries.
