Mr. James Rothwell's mother was taught there. He says Mrs. Conor was poor and had only six or seven pupils. She was probably a local lady and some families went to her. She depended on her pupils for food etc and she used go home with different children every evening and stay till bed-time so as to get her meals in the different houses.
Her school furniture consisted of a desk which was the "body of an old asse's cart) and round that she instructed her children.
