Picture Puzzle 45 – answer
The answer to our last puzzle wasn’t as straightforward as we thought. The two entrants both agreed that Christ Church School moved to its present site in 1989, the correct answer, but there were differing views as to the name of the institution that occupied the site beforehand, though both agreed that the former occupant was a school. For many years Tower Road School was indeed the name of the local school on this site. In fact, an article on the school appeared in issue 43 of this newsletter (2nd Dec 2006), featuring a picture dating from the mid-1980s that we captioned as Tower Road School. But, after exhaustive research, we can say that the old school building, demolished in 1987, was in its last incarnation home to the Woodlands Lower School to the Grove.
The winning entrant is Richard Adams of Salisbury Road. He has been sent a £10 token from Empress Art of Tower Road. Well done!
