Dave wrote (August 2007): "I have this photo in my family album. I am fairly sure it is Bilson School, can anyone help with the names?".

There was some debate before we decided that this is in fact a photo of pupils at Bilson School. Some of the names above may therefore be incorrect as they were posted in the belief that this was Yorkley School.

Alan Everett added (November 2010): " ... I see now that the location of this photo has been decided as Bilson School. However number 9 on the right is definitely me Alan Everett but I did not go to Bilson School".

Lee Braby added (January 2012): "... This is not the Bilson this is St.Whites school, taken from the playground as it was. Was a nice little school".

Thanks also to Susan Cox.
