Public School. Cornwall, Ontario

Public School.

This photo of the Public School (Central Public School today) was taken very early. This “wing” eventually became the centre of the school. The addition (which had its front door preserved in the New Central Public School) was built in front of this building. Notice how small the trees are. Erected in 1885 this building had 12 classrooms, exclusive of the basement which at the time contained the caretaker’s apartment and furnace rooms, etc.
