View from Guildhall Street North
Of a passageway leading to the former William Harvey Grammar School (seen here as the building with a spire), which I understand was a dental and maternity clinic before being converted into flats. The William Harvey Grammar School moved into this building in 1882 from its previous site in Rendezvous Street. By 1913, the school had moved to its present site in Cheriton Road, where it is now known as the Harvey Grammar School http://www.harveygs.kent.sch.uk/history.asp

8, Foord Road South
Home to Folkestone Triennial 2021 to display a sculptural installation by the artists HayCheong, Simon Davenport and Shahed Saleem Nūr.
A notice affixed to the brick gatepost in Image shows a better view of the derelict building; it reads: The building in front of you, now occupied by the Islamic Cultural Centre, was two storeys taller until the 1940s. For a couple of centuries before that, it was one of the most important industrial buildings in Folkestone, incorporating a huge water wheel to drive its mill. The artists have worked with the Centre’s organising committee to present proposals for how the building might be developed to better serve the needs of the community in the future. The designs for the artwork were evolved through workshops with the Madrasa and the wider Islamic community.
