Summary edit

Description
English: Bishop Bilsborrow Memorial School, Princess Road, Moss Side, Manchester Bishop Bilsborrow Memorial School is situated in Moss Side alongside Princess Road. It was termed an "Elementary School" in the 1920's and children from 5 to 14 received their education there. This is Roman Catholic school. The most famous pupil to attend the school was Anthony Burgess, author of A Clockwork Orange, later to be adapted for a film. This film became notorious for alleged "copycat" crimes related to it. The director, Stanley Kubrick, decided that he no longer wished the film to be screened in the UK because of its possible harmful effects. The power and intelligence of Burgess's novel was somewhat overshadowed, but will outlast the film which is now freely available after Kubrick's death. One may speculate that the somewhat desolate immediate environment of the school played a small part in forming Burgess's creative ideas.
