Open Air Schools started on the continent in the early part of the 20th Century as part of the campaign to combat tuberculosis. This example was built in the 1920s and accepted pupils suffering from TB and a variety of other conditions, many of them relating to malnutrition. Plenty of fresh air, rest and three daily meals, as well as education, were the order of the day. There is a page on the Picture Stockton website which includes photographs dating from 1973 and reminiscences of former pupils at http://picturestocktonarchive.wordpress.com/2006/10/20/ragworth-open-air-school-1973/#comments . The school also features briefly in a film "One Man's Story" produced in 1948 for the Central Office of Information (link given below); this film is based on the story of Dr G.C.M. M'Gonigle who was Stockton's Medical Officer of health from 1924 to 1939
