Roby Mill C of E Primary School, Up Holland, Lancashire
This school was built around 1870 by the National Society as a Voluntary School. After 1870 the National Society tried to prevent School Boards being set up in some places by continuing to build schools. Their schools were generally smaller and plainer than the board schools. Many still had just two large rooms like this one. This was partly because they had less money than the boards but also due to old fashioned educational ideas.
