school on the common
This building on the south side of the common is now a private house, but was originally a boys' school and then a mixed infants' school. My son attended this school on the common in the late 1970s before moving up to the main St. Peter's school in Fabian's Way in his 3rd year. It was converted into a house in 1984.
