South Devon College, New building construction

The steelwork and foundations of the building which was to become the South Devon College's Open Learning Centre rise from the area where there used to be a relatively "temporary" building part of the former Torquay Boys' Grammar School. When the College used that building, it was named the "Bauhaus block" and used by Art students. The former Grammar school building, which can be seen intact beyond the steelwork, was soon to be demolished. So, too was the newly built Open Learning Centre - a huge waste of public money.
