The Torquay Boys' Grammar School Building was incorporated into the campus of South Devon College when the new grammar school was built at Shiphay in 1983. The College named the building after Frances Pugh. This building was demolished in the late 1990's when a new building, an Open Learning Centre was constructed to use space more efficiently. That new building has now itself been demolished as the whole campus has been sold for a housing development and the College has moved to Paignton. It is believed that income from the development will continue to support the College financially. The old Grammar School building was constructed in 1913. The bell tower may be seen in another posting.Image]
