Dizzy Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 ....actually on second thoughs forget that as I don't think it's old enough and always looked very bland inside. Gosh what was I thinking when I said that So how about Grappenhall Hall 'Special' School near St Wilfred's on the cobbled lane in Grappenhall. That's a pretty old building with an interesting past and might still have some of it's nice remaining original features intact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Shame as I bet it was lovely in it's time. I've heard that the lads there are a bit narky as my lads college mate did his work experience with a company who had to go there and his mentor said the first time he went there he had a brick thrown at him amongst other things Maybe he just said it to scare the work experience lad though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
