Alderman Blaxill School

Alderman Blaxill Secondary Modern School in Walnut Tree Way, Colchester, was opened in 1955.

In 1955, the secondary part of the school moved to the new building in Walnut Tree Way, Shrub End, and was renamed Alderman Blaxill after a former Mayor of Colchester and chairman of the education committee.

The Hamilton Road building was used for infants and juniors.

Following the closure of the school in July 2014, the buildings were maintained for temporary use by children from the Market Field School in Elmstead Market, which was being rebuilt at the time.
