Lovecraft’s First School

If you can incorporate it into your drive it’s in-between other locations, otherwise it’s not a especially interesting location or building.

The site of Lovecraft’s old school Slater Avenue Grammar School is now occupied by “School One.”

(Letter to Reinhardt Kleiner, 16 November 1916) It was in 1898 that I first attempted to attend school....I entered the highest grade of primary school, but soon found the instruction quite useless, since Ihad picked up most of the material before. However, I do not regret the venture, since it was in dear old Slater Avenue (alas—to be abandoned next year!) that I made my only childhood friendship—that with Chester & Harold Munroe...In 1902 I again attempted school; & singularly enough, I went to the same old Slater Avenue edifice, which had now acquired a grammar department in addition to the primary grades.
