County School for Girls,
Nightingale Lane, Bickley, 1983
Founded
in Widmore Road in 1905 as the County School,
"to extend opportunities for girls to
enjoy secondary education", this purpose
built building opened in 1910 on the edge
of town.
It was extended in the thirties and again
in the fifties as the population continued
to rise.
Declining roles in the eighties brought about
an amalgamation with the boys' school in Hayes
Lane in 1989, and the building became an adult
education centre.
