    In 1966 the school moved into this building. At that time, the panels were painted yellow, attracting many flies from local fields, and the entrance at the left of the picture was the one used by pupils up to the Upper Fifth forms. A larger entrance, further to the left, was used by staff and sixth-formers.

Famous quotes containing the words lane, site and/or gallery:

    “Life is a thin narrowness of taken-for-granted, a plank over a canyon in a fog. There is something under our feet, the taken-for-granted. A table is a table, food is food, we are we—because we don’t question these things. And science is the enemy because it is the questioner. Faith saves our souls alive by giving us a universe of the taken-for-granted.”
    —Rose Wilder Lane (1886–1968)

    “The present hour is always wealthiest when it is poorer than the future ones, as that is the pleasantest site which affords the pleasantest prospects.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I should like to have seen a gallery of coronation beauties, at Westminster Abbey, confronted for a moment by this band of Island girls; their stiffness, formality, and affectation contrasted with the artless vivacity and unconcealed natural graces of these savage maidens. It would be the Venus de’ Medici placed beside a milliner’s doll.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
