An amazing outcome: Listed at Category A and raising the building to the level of protection of Edinburgh Castle.
Listed largely for innovative plan form and creative and diverse use of materials. One of only three schools produced by Peter Moro it is now one of a very small group of schools that have been recognised as being of national importance for their creativity and architectural innovation in the post-war period. Schools remain a key concern of the Society and we are very pleased that Fairlawn has been given the protection it deserves.
Listed for imaginative use of the constricted site, strong modern design, innovative internal arrangements and outstanding artwork by Robert Brumby.
We were extremely pleased that English Heritage decided at our request to upgrade the synagogue to Grade II*.
