Ilford celebrates in style
1877
On Friday 21 September 1877 M LA Mr Hurley was met three miles from Ilford and escorted to the town by a brass band and a cavalcade of horsemen. He was then presented with a trowel with which he laid the foundation stone for the Ilford Public School. After the ceremony a banquet was held.
It is believed this building was burnt down in 1930. Does anyone have photographs or information relating to the building?
