Jerwoods campus

A collection of documents, mainly photographs, of Jerwoods, the Lower School Campus. In 1962 the School purchased the old vicarage on Burley Road, named Peterborough House. In 1967, the Junior boys moved into their new boarding house. In 1974, new houses were erected around Peterborough House. The duo-decagonal Lincoln House for boarding girls was designed by Tom E. Wilson and built by George Duxbury and Sons, the architect and contractors of Round House. Behind it was built the Coleman Building, named after Leslie Coleman, into which Sargants (Day boys) and Ancaster (Day girls) moved in 1975. On 14 May 1974, John Jerwood unveiled the foundation stone and the Junior School was officially opened on 23 November. The houses comprised small dormitories with bunk beds, common rooms, a junior library and playing areas. The Coleman Building was linked to Lincoln House and Peterborough House.
