Big ups to Northern Ninja for this, when we visited together a few weeks ago.



This school was built in 1903, as an Independent school for boys. By 1939, the school educated 800 pupils.

A junior school was built on site in 1929, but by 1970 it closed due to dwindling numbers. The senior school followed suit in 1977. Sometime after this, the site was used by the United States University Academy, but closed in 2007.

The site is being converted into apartments in 2012.

There wasn't many people about. One guard we saw.
 
It's a pity you didn't get there a few months earlier before my dad died,he was a pupil here in the1930s and would have loved to have seen these photos of his old alma mater.He was sent there after his father,who was a mason, died and educated as far as I know for free.He never spoke to me about his time there so whether he had a good or lousy time I do not know.Thanks for this post Landie Man it bought back happy memories of my Dad

What an interesting yet sad story. No worries mate, glad I could be of help. Sorry to hear of your loss.
 
Not too sure how I managed to miss this thread but glad I've caught it this time!

Looks like a cracking site and you've taken some great shots of it... cheers for posting them up! :)
