    1. Re: [WRY] Royds School

    3. Hi It was Royds Hall Grammar School, located just above Paddock and below Quarmby, it was built on farm land once owned by the Quarmby family. I went there in 1952 and later by the time my brother went it was no longer a Grammar School but rather a general high school as the system had changed by then. A Prime minister of Britain Harold Wilson once went there. We had a school song called "40 years on" and one had to be virtually 51 before this became even relevant. I always wondered where I would be etc 40 years on. Jean in S.
