    Great photo of a beautiful building. This is Newnham College's Sidgwick Avenue site, where building did not start until 1875.

Leamington

from Cornell University Library

  • DON said:
    This is my old school!

    Built in 1847 as Leamington College, it then housed the Sacred Heart Catholic Convent from 1903-1916, and subsequently Dover College from 1916-1922, before once again becoming Leamington College for Boys. I was a pupil here from 1959 to 1966.

    In 1977 as part of secondary school reorganization, it became Binswood Hall sixth-form centre. It finally closed altogether in 2009, was sold for redevelopment, and is currently (July 2010) awaiting conversion into a retirement flats complex.
  • Sam Saunders said:
    Strange to tell, my current home is a flat in a retirement flats complex in Bristol.
