Unveiling of Commemorative Plaque for the Spanish Screen

 
       
   

 
       
   

Gordon Crocker, Clinton Grasby and Ian Melvin at the unveiling of the plaque for the oak screen, of uncertain age, that was formerly at Hardyes' School Library at Culliford Road. Prior to that, it had been part of the old Dorchester Grammar School in South Street. It is reputed to have been originally part of a Spanish galleon, washed-up on the Dorset coast from the defeated Armada. The screen has the unique distinction of having been part of all three schools.
