The rubble on the football field is from the demolished Glenburn School which was out of shot on the left.
Greenock High School, Inverkip Road

The Inverkip Road building opened in 1971, replacing the previous building which was located on Dunlop Street.

The buildings were demolished, along with the adjacent Glenburn special needs school in 2013-14. The site was cleared and a new access bridge built over the Spango Burn in preparation for the construction of a new female only prison, but the prison project was cancelled due to a change in strategy by the Scottish government.
