The former Union Free School is located at the end of Conklin Street in New Hamburg, New York, United States.

The west one, which originally rose to a bell tower on the third story, has a transomed entrance with a decorative hood stopped with corbels.

[1] The building was probably begun in the early 1870s, during New Hamburg's peak years as a river port.

[1] It is still in basic form a one-room schoolhouse, but five times larger than the extant Grammar School in Chelsea to the south.

Its size and placement on the rise overlooking the river suggest the pride the community of New Hamburg took in it.

The modest decoration shows the widespread acceptance of the Picturesque aesthetic in the area at the time.
