The "Barry Building" as it was known, was, and still is, considered to be one of the country's architectural gems. The building was designed by Sir Charles Barry who later went on to design the Houses of Parliament. The film utilizes recently discovered 3D glass slides that were captured by a stereoscopic camera just before the building was stripped for demolition, giving us a unique glimpse of the building's incredible architecture in a way never before seen. Old Edwardians who studied at the school offer emotionally engaging, subjective insights and share anecdotes about their time in this amazing environment; bringing the building life and forever preserving the memories these old boys collected during their school careers.
