Page "Clifton, York" Paragraph 32

Clifton National School for girls and infants, also known as Burton Stone Lane School, was opened in 1841.

In 1878 the girls were transferred to the new Clifton girls ' school and Burton Lane continued as an infants ' school until 1892 when they rejoined the girls school.

The Burton Lane School was closed in 1892 and the building demolished.

In 1914, additional accommodation for the infants was obtained in the parochial hall in Water Lane and the school itself was used for girls only.

By 1932 the school had been reorganized to provide infant accommodation only.

The school became a controlled voluntary primary school in 1950 and is known as Burton Green School.
