More about this scene

In the distance we can just see the imposing building of King Edward's School. It was founded in London in 1553 as Brideswell Hospital to care for destitute children. The boys' half of the school moved to Wormley in 1867, taking on its new name. The girls' school relocated here in 1952. Today it is an independent co-educational school with 480 pupils, of whom 300 are boarders.
