Summary

Description
English: Pokesdown: 896 Christchurch Road This imposing building, on the corner of Hannington Road, was the first permanent home of the Bournemouth East School of Science and Art, which had been established in 1892 in rented premises in Drummond Road. The recently founded Education Committee of Bournemouth County Borough Council sought to provide purpose-built premises for the College, and here it is – the foundation stone was laid in September 1898 and the building opened twelve months later. At one of its Inspections in 1901, it was recognised as one of few institutions where the teaching of building construction and decorative arts were being correctly conducted. Today, it is a health centre/clinic, and also houses the 896 Club, a youth club which is named after its address and nicknamed The Numbers.
