In 1893 the school relocated from its town centre position to a site on the edge of Penistone, where it remains to this day. At this 'new' site, the school developed and expanded from its Weirfield origins to incorporate the old workhouse, stables and the building of Fulford Hall in the early twentieth century. It is on the latter building that I have based my design. This is the one I remember from my teenage years.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eI had friends who attended PSG and can also remember driving to my sister's in nearby Thurlstone, looking over to the school, high upon its hill (well before the new house development sprung up at its feet!).
