Rickmansworth: St Joan of Arc Catholic School
The building in the centre of the photograph was originally a house, called "The Elms", that was built in 1728 and was once the home of George Elliot, the pen name of the novelist Mary Ann Evans (1819 - 1880) who lived here in 1876 when she was writing her book Daniel Deronda. The School was formed in 1904 using premises just down the road and purchased the house in 1922 in order to expand its facilities.
The original house, not the adjoining school buildings, is Grade II Listed and the English Heritage website describes this exterior facade thus:-
"House, now school. c.1720-30. Red brick, tiled roof. 5 bays. 2 storeys and attic. Central entrance: 6 fielded panelled door, panelled reveals, moulded lintel and jambs, Ionic doorcase with engaged fluted columns, pediment. Glazing bar sashes in shallow reveals, gauged brick flat arched heads. 9 pane sashes in attic. Moulded brick plinth and cornice. Stone coped parapet."
The statue in front is of St Joan of Arc and was designed by Joan Jackson, the Head Girl of the school in 1939.

Rickmansworth: A412 Park Road footbridge
This footbridge gives all the impressions of having been erected as a temporary structure, yet it has been a fixture in Rickmansworth for at least the last 30 years! The photographer thinks that it was built in the late 1970s when the nearby Rickmansworth Park Junior Mixed and Infant School was opened, to provide access across what was then the Rickmansworth By-pass, between the school and the centre of the town. Today the road is the A412 Park Road, with the High Street going off to the left from the mini-roundabout.
