Victorian School 1873
Outside
The front of the building shows the use of old bricks, which had weathered well, buttresses and vent grids. The roof is steeply pitched and the classroom on the south side still retains the original decorative ridge tiles. The rear of the building has some Kent tile hanging on the walls. They also noticed the chimneys and the lead sheeting, some of which, Mary recounted, was once stolen whilst she was working in the south classroom!
The children noticed the Church-like windows with their pointed shapes and some stained glass. These were found in Church Schools and also Board Schools.
