A Special School No More



There used to a primary school here for pupils with special needs. Originally it was called Werneth Grange and then Oakdale School. It later became Dale Grove School and more recently Thomas Ashton School.

It has now been demolished and the buttercups are taking over.

Another photograph is on Hyde DP Xtra.

  1. I hate to see buildings torn down.
    The buttercups do look cheerful though.

  3. It's hard to see a school being torn down. Any idea what will be built in that lot?

  5. Appreciate your pictures so much. In the days of film instead of memory cards, I would have loved to take this photo in black and white.
