Elmbank House
This is taken from almost the same spot as Image], and provides a complete contrast. These two houses are on the Victorian 25 inch to the mile map, when there were no streets at all west of Claypotts Road. They are now surrounded on the east by the buildings of Grove Academy.

Grove Academy
The main entrance to the new building on Claypotts road is startling, certainly not dull. This was well outside school hours, and the place was busy with comings and goings of adults, presumably using the school sports facilities.

Grove Academy
The main architectural feature of the new buildings is a semicircular tower which in some ways echoes the towers of Claypotts Castle, just up the road. It is a refreshing change from the rectangular grey-white concrete block style of school building which provided so many blots on the urban landscape in the 1960s and 1970s.
