The Fife Lake–Union District No. 1 Schoolhouse, also known as the Cedar Creek School of the Union Township Hall, is a school building located at 5020 Fife Lake Road near Fife Lake, Michigan. It was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1983[1] and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[2] It is unique because of the distinctive design of its Late Victorian porch and belfry.
History
The Fife Lake Schoolhouse was built in 1882 by local carpenter John Dewey.[1] It was used as a school until the early 1950s. In 1955, Union Township purchased the schoolhouse and converted it into a township hall.
Description
The Fife Lake Schoolhouse is a one-story Late Victorian balloon-frame rectangular structure with a gable roof and clapboard siding.[1] The exterior is generally plain, but the appearance is enhanced by a distinctive triple-bay entry porch with a barrel-vault-top center, and by an open well-house-like belfry. Both the porch and the belfry have stickwork brackets, and the belfry has a gable roof and a central finial. Two entrances lead from the porch into coat rooms, which open onto the main schoolroom. The schoolroom has vertical-board interior paneling and a pressed metal ceiling. A clapboard woodshed with a gable roof is located behind the schoolhouse.
