More about this scene
One of the earliest buildings in the Albert Park estate was the Grammar School, fronting the Cresent east of the park. From 1563 until 1870 the Grammar School, or Roysses School, had occupied buildings east of St Johns Hospital and the abbey gateway. It was a small school with fewer than 70 pupils. Its expansion followed rapidly on its new site, occupying the buildings seen in this view designed by Edwin Dolby in High Victorian style and opened in 1870. The school is now a private one, Abington School, and much expanded.
