St Hilda’s school opened on King’s Road on 1st of June 1903. The Roman Catholic School was attended by many families and generations in the area, only to close shortly after it’s centenary celebrations on 30th July 2004. The school has been scheduled for demo in 2011, but still stands today. Visited on a couple of occasions but always remained sealed. Im not a great fan of school explores as such, but after all its empty, its in my home town and deserved a look in.
This first photo is not mine, but is from Southwickhistory.org.uk, showing one of the rooms when the school was still in use: -
