A lovely, brown border postcard similar to the ones sold by the Torry's. The sender notes on the front of the card that this was the "school where I taught when in Westville". It can be clearly seen on the hill at the left behind the houses and was relatively new at the time that this postcard was published (built in 1899). There were stories that the school had a ghost that lived in the attic!
