Looking down the hill towards Kington town centre, this is in the middle of the grid square.

Volunteer run and with restricted opening times, it offers a fascinating insight into the history of the area, from the distant past to more recent times. Well worth a look.

Built in 1896, as the new Board School, on Mill Street opposite the junction with Crabtree Lane.
The redbrick building is of art nouveau design with Jacobean style porches.
The opening of the Leominster to Kington railway line in 1857 resulted in the use of cheaply available imported bricks as a building material.
The school's own website includes the mission statement:
"Together at Kington we can provide the children with a happy and fulfilling childhood in preparation for the challenges that lie ahead".

Showing the glass overall roof erected between the Market Hall and the Coach House, making the combined space very useful for community events - complete with toilet facilities.

The ground is situated on the south side of Mill Street. On the right is a small covered stand in the home colours of yellow. In the cold winter of 2010, the pitch seems to have large patches of ice on it and looks rather unplayable.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Very smart these days. Right at the heart of the town.

Dist:0.1km<br/>Large coaching inn at the heart of the town. The large windowed extension was the Assembly Room of 1856 - now a health and fitness club, Cloud Nine. When I first saw what they had done to the building, I was not on cloud nine, but it brings revenue to keep the hotel going, and it offers a service to the town.
