A school in ruins by gilbertwood

A school in ruins

Today we did a trip to Maldon (an old mining town) and came across the ruins of the Gower School. It was built in 1874 of stone and shingle wit no lining! The maximum number of children who attended was 34, and it closed in 1908.
Fab outback shot!

I love the stonework in these old ruins. It's great that they have been reinforced to help to preserve them.

I love all the textures in the stonework wit (well you used that spelling) the lovely colours. No roof is OK in summer, but the children must have been cold in Winter. Really glad it's being retained with the metal framework.

It had a good run of service- too bad it's gone to ruin.

These are terrible school ruins. Once upon a time, there was a wonderful school, but now it is only ruins. Most students do not have the opportunity to go to school, so I would like to recommend a service to them, where they will find a lot of educational information, on this page https://samples.edusson.com/black-lives-matter-essay/ every student will be able to read an essay that black life matters.
