EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the entrance to Wigmore Schools, a historic educational institution located on Pennyhill Lane in the West Midlands. Established in 1870, the school was initially designed to house children from the Walsall and West Bromwich Unions, providing education for those who had previously resided in workhouses. The imposing receiving block and archway, adorned with intricate railings, served as the first point of entry for the students. Two figures, a woman in uniform and a young boy, stand solemnly on either side of the archway. The woman, likely a matron or teacher, watches over the boy with a protective gaze, while he seems to gaze off into the distance with a mixture of apprehension and curiosity. The uniforms they wear suggest that this image was taken during the late Victorian or Edwardian era, around 1904. The entrance to Wigmore Schools offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history of education for the less fortunate children of the time. The image evokes a sense of nostalgia and reminds us of the importance of providing quality education to all, regardless of their background or circumstances.
