School '˜spruce up' for big 400th reunion event
The timbered 15th century building, which houses the lower school, is where the school began back in 1614.
Suzanne Terrington, marketing and lettings officer, said: “We are giving the front of Church Street a bit of a spruce up, clean and redecoration, in readiness for the 400th anniversary celebrations in May, when our Church Street site will be open to past students and the public.
“Our hope is that it will be complete by the end of April.”
