The former National School for boys and girls was founded in 1816. In 1875 a new school was opened nearby and the old building was converted into cottages. The new school was demolished in 1998 and private residences built on the site. The National School is shown on the 1862-75 map. The new school building is shown on the 1897-1900, 1907-23 and 1929-59 maps.
