Ledbury Girls' School (Herefordshire)
The Southend, Ledbury, Herefordshire

Badge as depicted in Bunty #131 [16 Jul 1960]



Built as a Charity school around 1839, and surprisingly unlisted. Presumably the whole building was used for this purpose initially but sometime before 1871 the right hand section became seperate accomodation using the right hand door, which is now No 13. There is no No 14 today but the school continued until about 1910 using the left hand door as access to both the school and the teacher's accomodation ie The school house.

Taking on a new lease of life in 1910 as a School of Domestic Economy it became a Craft Gallery in 1971. Now the office of Solicitors.
