Nice pic thanks. Building looks pretty much the same. But the foreground is new. Do you know where I could find out about the History of the building.

If it was a kindergarten, which school was it attached to ? Cheshire Archives would maybe have some information, maps etc. and if you wanted to search the census would maybe give an idea of how long it had been a school. That's all I can think of, but someone else may have more ideas or info. You could maybe join a local chat site to Chester or have a search for Chester info on facebook. https://www.facebook.com/old.chester.city/https://www.facebook.com/ChesterHistoryAndHeritageCentre

The schools full address was,
Holly Bank School, Abbot's Hayes, Liverpool Rd, Chester.
Abbot's Hayes consisted of 4 large properties, 1 to 4 and Abbot's Hayes Lodge. The properties had between 11 and 14 rooms, the lodge having only about 5.
Abbot's Hayes and the lodge appear in numerous directories and census up to at least 1923.
Holly Bank school appearing in the 1940 telephone book suggests it opened between 1923 and 1940. Being able to find numbers 2, 3 and 4 in various telephone books also suggests the school was Number 1, Abbot's Hayes, approximately a 12 room house when it was residential.

Just noticed your reply Dustywings. Paternoster21 has not been online since last year, so he may not see your message. If you wished to include as much information as you have or wish to part with, on here, there will be someobody who will be interested and it will always available for future reference.
