Tong college
Been covered a few times this but not for several years, its a bit of a state compared to its former self for sure but is still a bit photogenic.
Cant believe the place is still here tbh.
Martyrs Catholic College, in Westgate Hill Street, Tong closed in the summer of 2010 and left behind a 49-year legacy. The school came into being in the form of a boys school, Cardinal Hinsley Grammar, and a girls school, Margaret Clitherow Grammar, in 1961.
The girls’ school was initially run at a villa at St Joseph’s College and the boys’ school opened as an annexe to St Bede’s in an abandoned primary school in Thornton. Three years later the schools moved on to the existing site of Yorkshire Martyrs. A joint sixth-form centre opened in 1974 before a merger seven years later.
Easy explore here even with 5 a side going on right outside the front of the building :rofl
Thanks For Looking
