Substantial detached former school set in over half an acre offering a range of potential uses

The school was built in 1925 and closed in 2013, and will be sold with vacant possession.

The total site area is around 0.57 acre / 0.23 hectare with the playground covering nearly half that at around 0.26 acre.
