More about this scene
Opened in 1877, and still looking pristine in this 1890 view, the Kendrick's Boys School in Queen's Road was endowed by funds first established by John Kendrick's will of 1624. Kendrick had been a very successful Reading cloth manufacturer, and the original Oracle workhouse was also funded from his bequest; this is long demolished and its site is now the new Oracle complex.
