Secondary school was Walton High School, in Oxford Road, Nelson. It was formerly Nelson Grammar School but changed its name as it became a comprehensive school the year I started there.
When the new building opened on 14 October 1929, the school was known as Nelson Municipal Secondary School. In 1945, the named changed to Nelson Grammar School, then to Walton High School in 1972. Finally, in its last year, the name changed to Pendle Vale College before demolition of the original building in 2008.
