Wow, you could be right, although it does resemble a church, those kids look too scared to move out of line, lol, those were the days of the cane by the look of it eek

Spare the rod, spoil the child!

Only reason I say that about the first pic is in the Schools thread I created it appears there as a school. I can honestly say I've never been in there, and I'm not in too much of a hurry to either! laugh

Yes you are correct it was a School but also a 'church' for Sunday School.

A moderator can "edit" the error if he wants to!

My Dad went to school there. I believe it may have been part of "Wriglys", a nickname for New Brighton (or Wallasey) high school, named after the headmaster

Was it not known as St. Jame's Church School?

The Tavern closed in 2015, planning permission to replace it with 16 flats has just been refused.
