View of the bell tower at Meanwood Church of England School in Green Road, located opposite the former Headmaster's house. The windows are boarded up in readiness for a programme of refurbishment. The stone panel beneath the belfry is inscribed as follows: 'This school and the master's house were built by Christopher Beckett Esq of Meanwood Park in the year of our Lord MCCCCXL' (1840).' Before the war it was the custom to ring the bell 20 times at 8.50 am and 1.20 pm prior to the start of the morning and afternoon school lessons. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Green Road School Beckett Meanwood Church of England School | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
