Berkeley Homes @ Potters Fields & ex-St Olave's Grammar School

This is a new thread to pick up where previous discussions on the future of both the Potters Fields former coach park and the former St Olave's Grammar School / Lambeth College building left off.

The whole question of Potters Fields has aroused enormous interest over the years.

Please use this thread to continue to discuss the issues and share information - but please be fair and honest in your contributions to this forum.

Personally I would prefer no-faith schools.

Where are your children at school, JayBee?

Thats none of your business Mapmaker if indeed Jaybee has children, He /she was expressing a view on the type of schools he/she would prefer. A view one can have wether or not one has children.

Quite. And if anyone wants to discuss the principle of faith schools, please take it to the Chatter section so we can keep reasonably on-topic in this thread.
