Nottingham - NG1
Image: © David Hallam-Jones Taken: 28 Apr 2012
An eerie, ghost-town like stillness appeared to be hovering over the Addison Street end of Arboretum Street when this picture was taken on a Saturday morning in April. These buildings house the junior section of Nottingham Girls' High School, an independent fee-paying girls' private school that was established in 1875. The roll embraces approximately 1069 girls of between 4-18yrs of age and it counts Gina Birch - bass player with The Raincoats, Helen Cresswell - the children's author, Helen Karagounis, née Thieme - the Olympic athlete, Sudha Kheterpal - the percussionist, Stella Rimington - the former Director-General of MI5 and Julie Myerson - the author & writer for the Financial Times among its past pupils.
