The original stables were to the west of All Saints Church and accessed from Noble St. Also located here were the coach house and the cow sheds, fruit trees and a vegetable garden. According to Austin Gray these remained here until about 1900 when the land was used for playing fields. Horses ridden by day students to school were stabled at the Claremont Avenue end of the School after the purchase of land there though this photo of about 1916 suggests that this wasn't always the case.
