North Gate (Galley Hill), Sleaford, Lincs.
Part of the Grade II-listed Carre's Grammar School. As a result of the gradual development of the school site over several hundred years a number of buildings in differing architectural styles can be seen fronting different sections of North Gate. The school was founded in 1604 as the result of a bequest by Robert Carre of Aswarby to provide for the education of local boys and Charles Kirk was the architect responsible for a rebuild of school in 1834. Apparently the school went into a period of decline in the late C18th and early C19th centuries, effectively closing in 1816. However, a group of trustees purchased land in 1826 and secured funding in 1830 for the construction of new buildings and the school was reopened in 1835. Further extensions were added in the 1900s and added to in 1940s and 1950s. The school became grant-maintained in 1991. It received Specialist Sports College status in 2003 and an additional Science specialist status in 2009. In 2011 it became an Academy. This section of North Gate - i.e. the B1518 – is the part furthest from the town centre.

North Gate (Galley Hill), Sleaford, Lincs.
A view along the east side of North Gate. This is a section of North Gate - i.e. the B1518 - furthest from the town centre. The street lamp marks its junction with Church Lane, in which the town's Fire Station is situated. Beyond the lamp and facing this 'main' road are the Northgate Almshouses. The buildings on the left form part of the Grade II-listed Carre's Grammar School. As a result of the gradual development of the school site over several hundred years a number of buildings in differing architectural styles can be seen fronting different sections of North Gate. The school was founded in 1604 as the result of a bequest by Robert Carre, of Aswarby, to provide for the education of local boys. It seems that the school went into a period of decline, effectively closing in 1816. However, a group of trustees purchased land in 1826 and secured funding in 1830 for the construction of new buildings and it reopened in 1835.

North Gate/Church Lane, Sleaford, Lincs.
Sleaford's "Community Fire Station" on Church Lane can be seen here near the north-east corner of the site occupied by the Northgate Almshouses. This almshouse building was constructed in 1857 as an addition to the Carre’s Hospital Almshouses in Eastgate. Church Lane passes the front of the fire station and forms a 'c' shaped arc around the back of the almshouses before it rejoins North Gate half a mile further on towards the town centre. The principal road at this junction is the B1518.
