More about this scene
Now known as Truro School, the college was founded on the hill overlooking the city 10 years before this photograph was taken, 'affording a thorough English education at a moderate cost' for up to 120 boarders. It boasted five classrooms, a dining hall, dormitories, a sick room and a chemical laboratory. See how the river comes right up to the quays in the heart of the city - all of this was later covered over to become a car park.
