The Grammar School, and the Accrington High School for Girls, both closed in the mid seventies, with the introduction of the comprehensive system.

Under that system Moorhead High School was built, which incorporated the old High School buildings.

It's a great pity the Grammar School was demolished, in my opinion. It was a fine, and imposing building, with a long history, in the story of Accrington's educational institutions.
