More about this scene
Rossall Hall, Peter Hesketh's ancestral home, became Rossall School on 22 August 1844. Town building had drained nearly all his wealth, and a sale, when most of his possessions were auctioned, lasted a fortnight. Zenon Vantini, the first manager of the North Euston Hotel, backed by the Rev John St Vincent Beechey, put forward the idea of a boarding school for boys, and by 1904 the school was flourishing, despite an outbreak of scarlet fever in 1846 which almost led to its closure.
