Well done fade.
For those who are interested/didn't know/haven't googled, Ragged Schools were free schools providing basic education for the destitute in the C19th. Wealthy philanthropists like Angela Burdett-Coutts gave much needed support, as did Charles Dickens.This one was the largest in London and was set up by Dr Thomas Barnardo

I like the speed today! My gf & I were just about to head for the Ragged school when i double checked and saw Fade had got there first. Luckily I recognised the sculpture and could still have a purpose for the ride! Also went to LMNH for the first time. Good cakes.

Yeah, it didn't take me long to figure out that the ragged schools museum was only about a mile away from where I live, so I thought I'd make a dash for it before someone else beat me to it! Nice to finally get my first tag in.

I've not been to the new tag but it's googlable from the clue if you know the correct random historical fact... I am definitely going to visit this at some point as it looks ace.

Challenge is good, I agree. I don't know about what others thought, but the Olde one was certainly difficult to find! ;) I left the tower in mine hoping to get the momentum going over the weekend, but I don't think you need to reveal any more for this one Dr P!
Oh, thanks for fixing the Dr/Mr - school boy error. -

You say that, and yet I see not much progression. Diddley, in fact.
