Benchmark on Marksbury Road School
Image: © Neil Owen Taken: 29 Dec 2011
A cutmark (as described in the Benchmark Database: http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm40665 ) on the corner of what was previously the old school. It has been educating pupils for over seventy years and in its later life the school became a further education college. However, a new college has been built in the Hengrove Park development area (see Colin Bews' image Image]) and this has brought about the closure at Marksbury Road in 2010.
