I was at Kingsmead boarding school in the early 50s and we used to walk to this church (crocodile style) on Sundays.  After church (we were usually taken out before communion), we would walk back to school where the smell of our Sunday dinner filled the air.  I can still smell it.  The best meal of the week.  Kingsmead was later turned into offices (I think in the late 60s) but don't know what it is now.
We used to sit and have a rest for five mins on the bench behind the gates when visiting my Step Nan.
