Hello, I have ancestors, two girls Eleanor & Gwyneth PRICE who were living at 13 Abbey Street, Bermondsey, SE1 around 1925 or so, does anyone know the closest school they may have attended. I suspect that number 13 was at the Jamaica Road end of the street, with St Mary Magdalen their parish church. I know that their school was close to the railway viaduct because I remember my mother pointing the school out to me when we passed on the train sometime in the early 1950's, it was a tall brick building with a flat roof surrounded by fencing that may have been used for sports or something. Can anyone help. Regards, Cathy in South Australia
