The former schoolhouse, constructed in 1872, is currently owned by the Goshen Volunteer Fire Company. Used as a school through the 1950s, the school house was acquired by the fire company. The building maintains its rectangular plan, front entrance, and bell tower. It is currently vacant, having been used infrequently for public meetings and events.
The grant will help fund the preparation of a nomination to the National Register, a preservation plan that will assess current conditions and make recommendations for repair, as well as the preparation of construction drawings that will address the most urgent repair priorities. The fire company intends to return the building to public use.
