Title:The Brushes, Barnsley Road, Firth Park
Location:Sheffield_Firth_Park
Date Period:1920-1939
Notes:

In 1919 Brush House and 69 acres of ground were bought by Sheffield Council from Miss Wake to be turned into a secondary school; later becoming Firth Park Grammar School. The boys wore distinctive Red (maroon) Caps thus giving the school its nickname. See: Britain in Old Photographs, Shire Green, Wincobank and Ecclesfield by Brian Woodriff; Ref. 942.74 S.
