More about this scene
South-west of the town centre, along the Ampthill Road, on a large site between it and the railway line, the County Schools were built in the 1880s on a grand plan with a massive tower and, to the left, a fine chapel. Long demolished, its site is now occupied by Technology House, a rather good 1960s building, long and well-proportioned and in generous grounds, the remnants of the school site.
