Climate
of the times
A Borough Guide to Machynlleth from the years before the
Great War is proud to include the newly established County School
among its entries
This entry for the school is keen to establish the schools
academic credentials along the lines of a traditional English
grammar school.
It is very much an indication of the climate of the times
that the advertisement makes clear that girl pupils are not to
be prepared for university, the professions or commercial life.
