EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1874, showcases the picturesque view of the new Convent, School, and Orphanage at Bartrams in Hampstead, north London. Designed by the renowned architect C.G. Wray, this charitable institution was established to provide care, education, and shelter for orphaned and destitute children. The image portrays a serene and idyllic scene, with children playing in the courtyard, surrounded by the beautiful architecture of the convent and school buildings. The orphanage, a testament to the welfare and social progress of the time, offered a sanctuary for those in need, providing them with a sense of security and hope for a better future. The intricate details of the buildings, from the ornate windows to the red-tiled roofs, reflect the care and attention given to creating a nurturing environment for the children. This photograph, a window into the past, offers a glimpse into the history of children's care and education in London during the late 19th century.
