The Grammar School left that building in 1968 and moved into some horrible concrete monstrosity on Queens Road West (which someone told me has been demolished), before going comprehensive a few years later. After the Grammar School vacated the Blackburn Road building, it was used as a sort of annexe for Accy College. My missus learned English and typing there when she came to this country in the mid-80's.

The concrete monstrosity has indeed been demolished. I had a meeting at the new Moorhead last year. It was very modern and quite smart. Not to sure if the architechture will stand the test of time though.
Also I didn't realise the post was discussing "The Old Grammar School", my mates dad taught cookery there.
