Introduction
Features include a grassed entrance court, a drive and sports pitches.
The Architect's Journal of October 1937 shows a site plan of the college indicating sports pitches in front, a grassed entrance court and at the rear a paved court leading to gardens.
The entrance drive was planted with flowering cherry tress and to the north a row of Lombardy poplars was planted in March 1938. Today the poplars have been removed and replaced by conifers.
