When I attended school this whole stretch of Crocketts Lane was a series of schools. From right to left they were Chances Tech', the junior school (8 to 11 year olds)& James Watt Tech (12 to 16 year olds). The building with the 'spire' was the junior school until approx' 1957 but later became James Watt Annexe. James Watt proper has since been demolished as too has St Michael's Church which stood alongside. Behind the 'Annexe' was (& still is as far as I know) the Infant School. I now believe that most of the buildings are part of the local Technical College.
