A view of Busch House from the school playground. The house is a Georgian mansion, and is Grade 2 listed. The school used the ground floor as an assembly and dining hall, while the upper floors were the caretaker's accommodation. The single storey extension on the right is the school kitchen. The minibus was not usually parked on the playground, but this was holiday time, and the vehicle had been moved for security reasons. See also: Image

At the time this photograph was taken, Busch House School was a Local Authority Special School for pupils with emotional and behavioural difficulties. There were about 70 pupils on roll aged from 5 to 16. The school opened in 1938 as an Open Air School for delicate children. The school was housed in several wooden buildings which had large folding windows which could be fully opened to create 'open air' classrooms. The corner of one of the buildings is visible on the right. In 1982, this room was the Gym. The large building is Busch House, which is a small Georgian mansion, and is Grade 2 listed.
