This 1878-built Primary School is still in use today, though an extension was built to the right of it about 30 years ago. The turret and spirelet have been removed and this part is now known as the Victoria Building.

The photo shows number 18 High Street, on the left, where Mr. and Mrs Miles lived.

I remember when it was altered, the builders found rushes under concrete in the upstairs floors and rushes in the ceilings.
