The school provision in Bolton upon Dearne gradually increased as the town increasing in size. 1892 maps show just the southern most building; by 1906 the central building was in place; and by 1930 the third school building has been built. This land was enclosed from the medieval townfield by the 1761 parliamentary enclosure award (date from English 1985). There is no legibility of the former field boundaries. Polygon includes a youth employment centre that was built on the site of the earliest school at Bolton that was marked on 1854 maps.
