Suntrap Nature Reserve

Near Robin Hood Inn 1911
Enlarge photo |  More about this photo

Does anyone recall the education reserve at Suntrap? I wonder if it's still going today? I visited it on Wednesdays whilst still at primary school, in approximately 1975-1978. The class would be split into 2 groups, one group would be led by Miss Beaver and the other by Mr Britain-Dodd (?). There were lots of wild animals in their natural habitat. Still teaching today? Kids - you don't know how good you've got it!

RE: RE: Suntrap Nature Reserve

I am also wondering the same thing. I live in the U.S. and did my student teaching at Suntrap in 1975. I am going back to London this summer for the first time since 1975 and was wondering if Suntrap still existed. Did anyone know?

The Sun Trap is still there and functioning. I walked past today and pictures are at http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150540618530703&set=a.10150540610450703.370844.683740702&type=1&theater


Apparently the building was a maternity hospital during the war and a mental hospital in the 19th century.
