Just re-reading Atarah's post in the linked thread, was the whole of the now demolished building, which I thought of as the Grammar School, once the Accrington School of Art & Craft? |
I seem to remember that during my time at AGS, part of the Art School was on the top floor of the AGS but the main part was on College St.
I think the Tech College on Sandy Lane opened in '55/56 - in '56 they only did the lead in course for Electrical Engineering and then C & G Elect. For ONC/HNC you had to go to Blackburn or Burnley
