History and architectural features
Built in 1841, this historic school is a small, fieldstone, one-story, eight-sided building with a wood shingled pyramidal roof. The school was abandoned sometime around 1865, and was then restored in 1964.[2]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2006.[1]
Representatives of the Newtown Square Historical Society have stated that this school was built by James Dunwoody, the father of William Hood Dunwoody, to replace an earlier log school that had been built by James' father.[3]
