Location of the former St. Peter's School, a boarding school attended by famous Welsh children's author Roald Dahl from 1925 to 1929. No trace of the school remains, as it closed in 1970 and was demolished to make way for a housing estate, with the sole reminder of the school being St. Peter's Ave, which was named after the school. A plaque commemorating the former site of the school has been installed at the junction between Shrubbery Rd, Shrubbery Ave and St Peter's Ave.
