Now you can download, print out and build the Grammar School huts in 1:120 scale! The WWI army hut and 1908 Speirs hut are rare survivals and unique in Berwick. See below for a distinguished precedent for our models.
You can use paper, or 160 gsm card. You may find a Pritt Stick convenient for gluing the tabs; the huts have tabs for mounting on a base, or can be free-standing.
The A4 page can be folded to form a greetings card.
The inside, showing what the models will look like and giving a bit of history, is optional and you may wish to omit it if printing on ordinary paper, in case it shows through on the models. To print the inside, remove the printout from the printer and without rotating or flipping it, feed it back into the paper tray. Use 100% scaling if Adobe Acrobat suggests a lower value.
Enjoy making your huts!
To help visualise the scale of the new builds intended to replace the huts, we have also made some card models of the proposed house and garage block.
Although we didn't know this until informed by Taff Gillingham of Great War Huts, there is a very appropriate precedent for our models: the WWI fundraising postcard from 1916 shown here, sold as part of YMCA Hut Day. Flag and hut badges (also shown here) were also popular when raising money for a variety of good causes.
So we have WWI, huts, youth projects, and card models as common elements here!

Great War Huts distribute a colouring-in hut model to their young visitors: not to be outdone, we now also have a black and white version to download.
