From Sean Crundall :
Hi all,
Here's a photo postcard, I recently purchased, of 9 Eliot Place, Blackheath. Likely, the photo was taken in the 1900's. I don't think this photo has been shown before.

Today, the site of George Valentine's school is occupied by two semi detached houses (private residences). Both houses were built in 1911. Valentine's school closed its doors c.1896, reopening as Nelson College. Nelson College closed in 1908, and the buildings were demolished the following year.
Today's Blackheath would be instantly recognisable to Montague John Druitt, with many Georgian and Victorian buildings still standing.
Regards,
Sean.
