IN THIS VIDEO WE TAKE YOU ON A EXPLORE OF THE ABANDONED LEA ROAD SCHOOL IN GAINSBOROUGH.
HISTORY
Gainsborough's Lea Road School was opened as Lea Road Council School in 1906.
Initially it was an infants’ (up to age 7) school.
In August 1930 it re-organised to accommodate Infants, Junior Girls and Senior Girls.
The school became Gainsborough Lea Road County Primary School and Gainsborough Lea Road Secondary Modern School for girls around 1945.
It had its own indoor pool which was built circa 1966 in the end ground floor classroom.
For the last 30 years or so till its closure in 1993 it was purely an infants school.
From 1997 the building was rented out as office space, but that use ended around 2010.
The local rag reported in 2013 -
An English Heritage spokesperson told The Standard: “The County Council own Lea Road School and it’s their responsibility to look after the building.”
“We’ve suggested that they should secure the building and make temporary repairs to the roof to stop it deteriorating further while options for re-use of the building are explored.”
Lincolnshire County Council told the Standard: “Our contractors regularly return to re-secure the site, but it is difficult to keep people out.
Unfortunately, the building is in a conservation area, and we’ve not been allowed to demolish it.”
In 2016 a Local Development Order was issued for the area from Kerry Foods to the Maltings, permitting development to be applied for.
This area excludes the school but includes the playground / car park to the rear.
According to rightmove the school is currently under offer.
