🟢Added February 2026🟢 A Note on Colour Restoration: Many of our images have been superbly colourized using Nano Banana AI, this work is ongoing. Please note that the colours are algorithmic interpretations and while we strive for accuracy, these versions are intended to bring a new perspective to our history, rather than serve as a 100% literal record. The original B&W photographs remain the definitive historical archive.

Simon Poulton (1967-74) writes:
I thought SNOBS would be interested to know that I have read part 1 of Peter Schweiger’s book completely and have selectively read part 2, which is Peter’s diary from 1981, and I was fascinated with the history and complexities of his family’s bespoke shoe making business and very amused at parts of his various recollections – particularly his experience with the bodyguard in Saudi! It was an enjoyable read – well done Peter.

I think this photo is much better than I originally thought. Restored and colourized, it's in the Rooms & Buildings section. It looks like it was taken at the same time as one of the early school panorama photos and it also shows a sizeable chunk of the gymnasium - we have very few photos showing the gym.

Thanks to everyone who brought memorabilia for the display table, and especially to Ray Wadham, Barry Maddams and Rob Dunning who all handed me items which I will display on this site as soon as I can. If I have missed anyone, please let me know.

I'm in the process of colouring many photos using Google's Nano Banana, I think the results are sometimes astonishing. Here are Bill Thomas and Peter Clarke at the Headmaster's retirement in 1975.
See the full size original and colour versions here. Please also read the above, recently added General Notice about Colour Restoration.
