EDITORS COMMENTS
The Charterhouse Gatehouse, a historic and fine architectural masterpiece, stands proudly as a testament to the rich history of London. Originally founded in 1371 as a Carthusian monastery, this magnificent building was later endowed as a school in the year 1611. The Carthusian monks, known for their rigorous discipline and contemplative lifestyle, built this beautiful gatehouse as part of their monastery complex. The Gatehouse of Charterhouse, with its intricate stonework and impressive size, served as the main entrance to the monastery. It is a remarkable example of late Gothic architecture, with its pointed arches, intricate carvings, and tall chimneys. In 1872, the Charterhouse was transferred from London to Godalming, Surrey, where it continues to serve as a school. The move was necessitated by the need for more space and the declining number of Carthusian monks. Despite the relocation, the Charterhouse Gatehouse remains an iconic symbol of London's rich history and architectural heritage. The Carthusian monks, who founded the Charterhouse in 1371, were known for their dedication to learning and scholarship. The endowment of the Charterhouse as a school in 1611 continued this tradition, allowing generations of students to benefit from the knowledge and wisdom of the monks. Today, the Charterhouse in Godalming continues to be a thriving school, inspiring and educating young minds in the beautiful surroundings of the historic gatehouse.
