More about this scene

The Ilminster by-pass now takes traffic from this street, and little has changed here. The shop and garage on the left are now houses, and new houses stand high on Strawberry Bank beyond. To the right, there is still a fish and chip shop by West Street, which runs down to the Minster.

I started at the school in 1961 as a day boy. The school also had boarders who lived at what had been the original school building off Court Barton which was also the girls school in my day. Looking at the photographs in this collection, the school was very much the same when I was there. Now it is a first school called Greenfylde. the school was founded in 1549 so it was a very old institution indeed. When I look back I am glad I was able to go to the school.
