Former School

This building, now a private house, caught my eye because its distinctive architecture marks it as a former school. It was known, rather curiously, as Headrooms School, and it operated from 1924 until 1962. Beside it is a rare example of the Arcon Mk V pre-fabricated houses built after the Second World War.
