Built in 1802, this historic structure is a one-story, one-room, stone schoolhouse building that has a wood-shingled, pyramidal roof and small terra cotta chimney.
It operated as a subscription school from the time of its construction until 1850. It was then used as a farm outbuilding, and, during the 1980s, as an artist's studio. It was restored in 1996 by the Wrightstown Township Historical Commission.[1]
