The Girls Arch 1954
"This picture shows what beautiful grounds we enjoyed in the early fifties. The school had its own full time groundsman and gardner who though quite unsung, did a wonderful job creating this kind of beauty throughout the grounds which were extensive."

Remember the Cricket Pavilion was built on a long pile of earth which had originally formed the old Air-raid shelters? The High Jump Pit was nearby, and if one walked from there back towards the Fives Courts on the right, went under the Girl's Arch and passed the tiny "bridge" over the dry ditch on the left, one could turn right and end up near the Dell and the Domestic Science room.

Just seen item in "Girls' Arch" section re cricket pavillion. It was moved to the "top of a pile of earth" to make way for the new Science Block, but until then was roughly near the (then) new Biology Lab.
