EDITORS COMMENTS
"Bromsgrove School, Worcestershire: A Tunnel Through Time (1953) This evocative photograph captures the unique and intriguing tunnel linking the old school house with the modern buildings of Bromsgrove School in Worcestershire, England. The tunnel, built in the early Victorian era by an unyielding headmaster, Dr. Jacob, serves as a testament to the rich history and tradition of this esteemed educational institution. Dr. Jacob, a man of great pride and privacy, found the sight of boys traversing his personal lawns to be most unsettling. In an effort to maintain his dignity and preserve the sanctity of his garden, he commissioned the construction of this subterranean passageway. The tunnel, completed in the mid-19th century, allowed students to move between the old school house and the new buildings without disturbing the headmaster's tranquility. The image, taken in 1953, showcases the boys in their traditional school uniforms, complete with boaters, making their way through the tunnel. The boys, with their focused expressions and determined strides, embody the spirit of resilience and dedication that has long been associated with Bromsgrove School. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when tradition and history held great importance in the world of education. The tunnel stands as a symbol of the school's commitment to preserving its heritage while adapting to the changing times. Today, it remains a cherished part of Bromsgrove School's legacy, linking the old and the new, and providing a fascinating glimpse into the school's unique history."
