This also added to the unusual shape of the building.

Seem to remember there were a few rooms along the back of the building? I don't recall the term the Chancel Room, but I'm assuming it was the staff room (got summed there a few times for a good telling off!). I remember the moveable partitions being moved back for a fair few whist drives, potato pie suppers and other such functions back in the day! A very strange building, but it has some happy memories!
