When these photographs were taken on 8 May 1974, the boarded-up windows suggested possible demolition of this tiny school building. When this opened on 10 May 1877, Patcham was just a village, on the London Road, but some miles from Brighton. The building was adequate for the few children, but later in 1902 the extension seen at the back was added, making room for 180 children. After its supercession by the present large schools in Patcham, it served as a junior mixed County Primary school. Now, in 1982, it has been reconstructed and additional buildings erected in 1982, it has been reconstructed and additional buildings erected and is now Old Patcham School for Physically Handicapped Children.
