66 Queen Mary Street, now occupied by Mr Ashton Piper, barrister-at-law and solicitor.
It was purchased at public auction by a merchant named Henry Hamilton on behalf of his friend Alexander Robinson.
The story goes that Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence, and his younger brother, Prince George, who later became King George V, visited Dominica in 1879 as naval cadets on HMS Bacchante and were entertained at the Robinson house, which was afterwards named "Clarence Hall", in honour of its royal visitor.
Robinson probably occupied the building as a dwelling, but when the Government decided to open the Dominica Grammar School, the spacious stone building on Grandby Street was rented for that purpose and opened as a school on 16 January 1893.
[4] The school offers a range of academic and technical subjects aimed at catering to the increasing demands of its in excess of 800 student population.
