Does anyone have any information about or photos of this school?

My Dad went there in the 50's, I remember he took me there to show me in 1986 but to his shock it had been demolished, it must have been recently as it wasn't too overgrown, just tall grass and weeds, possibly demolished about 1984.

It is located between the dry side of Rock Park and St.Peters Road at the end of Alpha Drive off Rock Lane East on what is now Kirkland Grove where a new Estate was built in the 90s.

I was forwarded a photo claiming to be the Kirkland School but several people who went there debunked it.

Both my old schools have gone, The Dell and Rock Ferry high, I thought the demilition of the Dell was criminal, such a nice school.

Bomb damage of Alpha Drive School (as it was then).

All other photos I can find are extremely fuzzy distant photos. Being tucked behind houses and not visible from the road it appeared to escape cameras.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025
