The Grammar School was a one-storey building on Castle Hill until 1635 when it was rebuilt, enlarged and covered with 'sclaitt' (Hutchison, 1904, 18). It was apparently reconstructed ln 1788, a plain building of three storeys and a garret (RCAHM, 1963, 284) After the erection of the High School in 1854, the old Grammar School .building was turned over for military use (RCAHM, 1963, 284).
