County High School, Gedling Road, Arnold, Gedling, Nottinghamshire, 11/09/1959. A view of the main courtyard at Arnold County High School filled with school children, seen from the roof of the 'houseblock' to the south-east. The school operated a house system of three houses for sports, scholastic and social activities. Rooms for housemasters, pupil dining rooms and kitchens were contained in the 'houseblock' that surrounded the central courtyard on three sides. This photograph featured in the October 1959 issue of Team Spirit, the Laing company newsletter in a story documenting the project's completion.
