Looks like the Old Abbey or Oxford Rd or Wilmslow Rd, could be Didsbury or even Liverpool Rd off Deansgate!View attachment 19883

Mr Bolton sounds familiar. The RE teacher WAS only there for my first few years of high school so it could have been him.My dad retired around that time - maybe just before you were there. Tosher Bolton (nickname / surname).
*edit. I just called my sister who was in the year above me...it WAS Mr Bolton!! I can still vaguely picture him now.

That was my old school, I was in Oldham, what house were you in? Left in 1977. Was made House Captain!! God knows why, was always on a conduct sheet for my behaviourView attachment 19931
My high school.....Yew Tree High in Wythenshawe. It went on to become Arden college and then got demolished. Fcking terrible school...but good memories!
I used to live on the estate just behind the school so it was dead easy to wag it.
