Does anybody know anything about that extraordinary building on Durward Street (formerly Bucks's Row)? From a photograph on the site (well, I think this was ten years ago), apparently it is still there. I have also checked aeriel maps and apparently, it is still there. Has it been demolshed? Or now posh flats? I think it was originally some sort of boys' and girls' home.

Dear Mrs Harvey,

The only original building still in Durward Street, and the one I think you are referring to, is the Old Board School. It is indeed still standing and is now posh flats.

Regards

Mr Monty
