Andrew Watson - the last word?

In last year's newsletter certain misinformation was given about Andrew Watson, Heath Old Boy and Scottish football captain.

His story is a fascinating and mysterious one. The documentary programme made about his life in 2003 has now been shown on BBC4 and BBC2. A video of the programme is in the Resource Centre at school and can be viewed by anyone interested.

Suffice to say that Watson lived in Halifax from 1864-70, when he boarded at Crossley's and attended Heath during the day, before going to public school in London.
