The remains of the former school in Church Street, Bridgtown. Now used as the premises of a glass & glazing firm, whose address is given as "The Old Schoolhouse', it was first established in 1874 and belonged to the church about 30 yards off-shot to the right. Initially there were about 90 pupils, a roll which grew to 130 in 1891. Management of the school transferred to the Church of England board in 1951, and it eventually closed in 1960.
