A view from Sturton Street of the rear of what was successively High Pavement and Forest Fields Grammar Schools, now being refurbished to house Forest Fields Primary School. When I was at FFGS from 1959-66 the art room (presided over by the wonderful Mrs Marjorie Macmillan) was at the top of the wing straight ahead, with the library below it. The tall windows to the right were those of the classrooms reached from the upper and lower halls, which were used for assemblies and PE.
