Passmore Edwards Free Library, Truro, Cornwall. Around 1899
The Passmore Edwards Free Library and technical school on the corner of Pydar Street and Union Place. Funded by Passmore Edwards and designed by Silvanus Trevail, the school was built in 1899 as a Technical College for men and women. It became a secondary school for boys aged 11-15 in the 1930s. The school was built as an extension to the Passmore Edwards Free Library which had been built in 1896. Both buildings were later used as Truro Community Library. A group of mainly school children pose for the camera. Probably taken not long after the school opened. Photographer: Arthur William Jordan
