REASONS FOR DESIGNATION

 

6207 GUELPH LINE

 

The Lowville School, also known as Limestone Valley School, was built in 1889 on land donated from the farm of Joseph Featherstone, and served the students of S.S. No.9 until 1953, when it was replaced by Fairview Consolidated School.  It was built on local fieldstone from the farm of Mervyn Coulson; sand for the mortar came from the Cleaver Mill Pond.  Its front gable is marked by a kingpost infill and crowned with a bellcote and weathervane.  The woodshed at the end gable is part of the original structure.  The separate boys' and girls' entrances are located, unusually, not at the ends but on the four-bay sides.  The windows retain their six-over-six panes and some of the original shutters.  The Schoolhouse is a well-known landmark in Lowville Park.
