EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the City of London Freemens School in Brixton, London, circa 1905. Established in 1854, the school was founded with the noble purpose of educating orphans of the freemen of the City of London. The image showcases the children in their school uniforms, gathered in the courtyard, exuding a sense of camaraderie and joy. The City of London Freemens School, with its rich history, was an essential educational establishment in the heart of London during the early 1900s. The freemen of the City, who were primarily merchants, craftsmen, and other tradespeople, took it upon themselves to provide a quality education to the orphaned children in their community. The school's origins can be traced back to the 16th century, when the City of London Corporation established the Bluecoat School for orphaned boys. Over the years, the school evolved, and in 1854, it was renamed the City of London Freemens School. The school moved from its original location in Brixton to Ashtead Park, Surrey, in 1926. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the lives of these orphaned children and the educational institution that cared for them. The image is a poignant reminder of the importance of community support and the transformative power of education, especially for those in need. The City of London Freemens School, with its long and storied history, continues to inspire and educate students to this day. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the school and the impact it has had on generations of children.
