This series relates to College House, the pupils who lived there and the history of the building.
College House was built c.1320 and used to be a priest’s house for clergy sent to the town by Westminster Abbey. Oakham School bought College House from the Church in 1736. It served as the school’s Sanatorium until 1965, when College House was then converted into a boarding house for a dozen potential Oxbridge candidates.
In 1971, College House became the first girls’ boarding house. In 1982, it was converted to be used as a Seventh Form Study Centre.
Since 2007 College House has been converted into offices. The Foundation and Marketing moved in and the Senior Deputy Heads use the wing as their private residence. The Barber Rooms, housing the School Archives, opened in 2010 on the first floor and the Old Oakhamian Club is now on the ground floor.
