Cuckoo Schools
The school was closed down in 1933. In the same year a large housing estate began to be built on the 140-acre (57 ha) site around the school. This was completed in 1939. Some damage due to a flying bomb was sustained during World War II. The estate which became known as the Cuckoo Estate is now a conservation area.[3][4]
The school buildings which remain, consisting of the old administrative block, are now used as the Hanwell Community Centre on Westcott Crescent,[5] and they are a Grade II listed building since 19 January 1981.[6] In 2015 the London Welsh School moved into the building.[7]
