Questions about Model School
Is Model School on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 20515047).
Can you visit Model School?
It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.
When was Model School built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1860–1870.
Is Model School protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
