Robert Smyth

The Old Grammar School. The timber portion of this building was put up in 1614 by Robert Smyth. It was set upon posts "to keepe the markett people drye in tyme of foule wether". The brick portion was added in 1868, and in 1978 the whole building was restored by public subscription. The school is now situated in Burnmill Road, and is called The Robert Smyth School.
