Gateforth School
Gateforth School, 1885
City of Westminster Archives
By Georgina Colbeck
Tony Heath remembers:
My recollections of Gateforth School are mixed. The freezing cold boys' lavatory on the roof, wet play-time in what was really the coke store, gas lights in the classrooms along with a coal fire, Miss Wilkinson, Miss Ellis and her Siamese cats, Miss Newsome, Misters Campbell and Wood and, most frightening of all, Miss Green! She had a small bottle of Dettol hanging round her neck, presumably to ward off the evil which might have come from us kids.
