KESarchive At the point Peter mentions the Reverend Lawrence, you may not quite be able to hear his whispered comment that . . . "He used to get tight ! "

KESarchive The headmaster during Peter's time at the school was Robert Laffan. When he was appointed in 1885 the school consisted of under forty boys and just two assistant masters. He used his own funds to employ further staff and as a result additional subjects were added to the curriculum and better examination results were achieved. This in turn attracted more pupils to the school.

KESarchive Don't forget to take a look at the Guildhall and Church Street as they are today in Google STREET VIEW. Just 'drag' the Orange 'Human' icon - in the top left-hand corner - and 'drop' it on the map at the AudioBoo microphone.

KESarchive Peter's family lived in the town's High Street, where his father ran a bookshop and private lending library, so in the morning Peter had only a short walk to the Guildhall in Church Street where the school was housed.
