EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the picturesque town of Godalming in Surrey, England, in the year 1870. The image showcases the impressive exterior of the New Charterhouse School, a renowned boarding institution that has been an integral part of the community for over a century. The New Charterhouse School was established in 1866, replacing the old Charterhouse, which had been in operation since the 17th century. The new school was designed by the esteemed architect, Henry Hakewill, and was built to accommodate the growing number of students and to provide them with modern facilities. The photograph reveals the grandeur of the Victorian-era architecture, with its imposing stone façade, tall chimneys, and intricately designed windows. The school's crest, featuring a monk holding a book and a cross, is prominently displayed above the entrance, symbolizing the institution's rich history and its commitment to education. The lush, green grounds surrounding the school add to its charm, with trees in full bloom and a serene pond reflecting the beautiful architecture. The image transports us to a time when education was a prized possession, and the New Charterhouse School was at the forefront of providing quality education to its students. This photograph is a testament to the enduring legacy of the New Charterhouse School and its significant role in the history of education in Godalming and Surrey. It offers us a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the beauty and grandeur of a bygone era.
