The only remaining building of the old Bishopstoke Infant School; built over a hundred years ago so was protected from development of the site back in the 1990's. The infant school site used to cover the whole of what is now Sydney Road and the Community Centre/grounds, with the exception of the oldest houses in Sydney road as you first enter the road (two on the left and four on the right) up to and including the house with the large magnolia tree out front on the right. The third house on the left as you enter Sydney Road was part of the new development which leads a cul de sac to the left, and sits on the site where there was an assembly hall, kitchens, and further down the hill there was a small school swimming pool, with playing fields opposite.
