Coach Houses

Photo from Marrion Pearson. Thank you, Marrion.

The classrooms would have been the Woodwork Room (left) and the Drawing Office. What was the first floor used for?

Dave McKenzie

Hi Dave,
The first floor was called the Pottery Room and was used for teaching small groups - usually 6th form. The area was also used for storing scenery for the stage productions.

Marrion's photo of the coach houses had me trying to remember which of my Forms used the ground floor room on the right hand side with the open windows as a Form Room. I know that Mr. Hudson was our Form teacher, and so it must have been 5A. I don't recall having many lessons in that room, although there were desks, chairs and a blackboard. We just used to have the register called, and we then proceeded to our lessons elsewhere. Can anyone else help me out here?
