The 'A scottish school' for Scottish children was built somewhere in Scotland between 1700 and 2009 and once taught a variety of subjects. The building itself has been vandalised a fair bit on the outside and in the grounds, inside hasn't suffered too bad but has been smashed up at some point. Stripped out in places but still enough left behind to make it interesting.

Visited with Kate, Lost, Jaff Fox, Havoc.

Not the last site we visited, but the last one ive got round to reporting from this trip! Over and out ;)

I sent the link to this to my wife. Here is her reply:

pic 4 is my first year science lab[22:07:26]
I sat right at the front there[22:08:09]
And my old geography/english room[22:08:25]
And the maths corridor![22:08:43]
And the foyer where my locker was[22:08:47]
And the old gym[22:09:27]
And the steps beside the sick room where the pay phone was![22:09:49]

Makes me want to cry ;(

Nice one Mr Bones :mrgreen:
 
I hope you followed the one way system. :mrgreen:

I'm surprised how little I remember of it. The only bits I positively recognise are the lab in picture 4 and the gym. I have much clearer memories of the exterior and the huts.
 
'A Scottish school' not too far from 'A Scottish Asylum'
The title cracked me up but you forgot to mention the 'Millions of PRS's' we avoided!

Great pictures san!
 
I believe I have a picture of the said One Way system, :mrgreen:

There were several vans in the playground today and there's a For Sale sign on it now.
 
That's a shame, I'm pretty sure I know which school this is. First time I've ever been able to work out the cryptic ones.

Really? Judging by your Username you may just be blind!

Reserach is free and isnt hard. Doesnt take a lot figure out where it is either tbh.

:)

Ill gieve you a clue;) Bell, famous soup label.;)
 
Bell Campbell? ??? Surely not Bell Heinz ;)

The van people were fitting steel shutters to all the windows so I imagine the opportunity has passed.

I never did get round to going in. I think deep down I didn't want to, I don't have a lot of affection for the place.

Well, if you don't live in the area and someone shows you a photo, its not easy to know where a place is if you aren't familiar with the locale.

But yeah, I was right. So I didn't need to research at all because I already knew.

Was a bit gutted that when I had the oppertunity that I didnt take it.
Shutters were put up to stop the previous incumbents and incumbents of the new place up the road, smashing the windows.
From other sources, I was told the school next door kept complaining to the council about the broken glass the children had to walk through to get to school.
