Here you will find pictures from the school days of the early 1970s - there are also a few from more recent times. There are copies of documents here too - purely functional at the time but of historical and personal value now. But all these are from a limited number of sources, so if you're an ex-student or staff member and you have some old photos or documents from this period then pleeeeez help us out by sending copies.

Proof that we did, in fact, all live together at Taymouth Castle School. Some people are missing (e.g. Colin who came a bit later), and others didn't seem to stay on into 1971. Can anyone help with the unknown names? (Photo from S. Belcher 1970)

The famous 'Banner Hall' of Taymouth Castle. It was the dining room for teachers back in the 70s. (Photo, C. Macpherson 1995)

Brooks Henderson with his engaging smile ... and a bump on the forehead? (Is this at one side of the castle or the back?) (Photo, S. Belcher 1971)

Who could forget Jon Hands? He and Brooks shared a room from which you could always hear the likes of Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. (Photo, S. Belcher 1971)
