Queen's Close

Queens Close

The large field that is now the Recreation Ground was originally two fields; in the late 1800s one of them was called Queen's Field (or Queenfield) after Queen Victoria. Part of the land was developed to become the Recreation Ground, the school and playing field, and Queen's Close.
