Ilderton School, from the train

Ilderton (formerly Ilderton Road) School is a fairly classic School Board for London / London County Council structure, dating from the early twentieth century. In the 1930s when Stephen Spender wrote his poem "An Elementary School Classroom in a Slum", this would have served very nicely as a setting.
