Photos of the Seacole Block (Risinghill Street School 1899 Building) taken in 2010. The ‘White Hand’ is believed to have been a signature by the architect and has given rise to many rumours about the building being haunted. The building is to be demolished in 2011 as part of the Building Schools for the Future Programme.
