If anyone is interested, I'm (hopefully) attaching three pictures from 1927, 1928 & 1929 showing all the boys (my father was there)

Wonderful period pieces, but too late for my uncle.

Yes - I'm sorry about that but hoped that others who have been following the post might find something useful - regret they are the only photos I seem to have. Gives you a feel for the way the building looked at the back - suspect little changed in the intervening 12 years?

Hi BeaNich and welcome to RootsChat, I'm sure that anyone who googles the name of the school and are brought here, they will be delighted to see your great photos.

I've read in this thread that the Southcliffe preparatory school for boys, was founded in 1896.  The founder was a Joseph Herbert Daniel.  The school was originally located at numbers 41 to 42 The Crescent, Filey, North Yorkshire.  This makes the founding date appear correct, because these buildings form part of a large grand Victorian terrace, that was constructed by Edwin Martin in 1890.  In 1901 the school had 22 boys, aged 9 to 13.  When Mr Daniel constructed his new purpose built  School, at Primrose Valley, he had 80 boys attending.  Since being a school, the building has been a public house, bar, dance hall and I believe it is presently some sort of store and possibly a staff accommodation block, for the Primrose Valley holiday camp. It may have had other uses previously that I'm unaware of? The photographs I'm posting on this thread are of the original school in Filey and various photos of the building at Primrose Valley, which still survives today.
