A Memory of Great Abington.

I was a pupil at the local primary school in Great Abington. This picture shows the Old School House that the headmasters of the school lived in during my time there. The Village Shop and Post Office is the white building making up the corner of the road as it leads round to the right. The road that leads round the corner to the right was the main A604 towards Cambridge. This photograph must have been taken after the village bypass was built, since the triangle on the road was painted after the rights of way were altered to allow the High Street traffic to take priority. The High Street actually crosses the picture and is taken on the Hildersham Road into Great Abington High Street.  Also, I remember a lorry toppling over into the front grounds of the school itself just visible to the right of the house. You can see the black and white Armco barrier which was subsequently erected after this particular accident, again just visible where the road disappears round the corner. This was most definitely a feature added in the mid-late 1960's. I cannot remember when the bypass was completed - I suspect it is circa 1970.
