The Fives Court photographed in 1998

The Fives Court was an unusual building situated in the school yard, unusual at least until you realise it's original purpose, for playing Fives.

The building was converted into a CCF armoury in 1956, when the War Office took over the building on lease at a peppercorn rental, and agreed to fund necessary alterations and to pay for periodic maintenance. It was later used by the school caretaker.

The third science block is now on the site.
