Heaton Grammar School, Newcastle upon Tyne
In 1965 comprehensive education was still being debated. At this time the boys at Heaton Grammar were kept apart from the girls at Heaton High by a wall just behind the newly-built cricket pavilion.
In 1967 the two schools on this site were to be merged into a co-educational comprehensive school, Heaton School.
In 1983 it merged with Manor Park School to become Heaton Manor. The old Manor Park school - only opened in 1959 - was demolished and the site reused for housing.
This building has also gone, replaced by a modern school in 2002-4, using much of the playing field area.
