Knebworth Primary & Nursery School

Take away the flat-roofed extensions at the front and the remaining three gable-ended buildings represent the basic fabric of the school as it was opened in 1912. The central section has an attractive bell tower. The school was built primarily to serve the large increase in population in "new" Knebworth following the opening of the railway station built to serve "old" Knebworth in 1884. The photo was taken at the end of a wet November Sunday afternoon that was just about to get an awful lot wetter... The School's website is here http://www.knebworth.herts.sch.uk/
