We have acquired one of Bath’s historic buildings to provide a wonderful new home for our Junior School and Nursery School.Cranwell House, situated in eleven acres of parkland and gardens was built in the 1850s. Originally built as a gracious country seat for one of Bath’s most famous mayors, Jerome Murch, it has subsequently been an art school and, more recently the home of Summerfield Special School. The building plan was copied from Inigo Jones’s design for Widcombe House in Bath and has a wealth of original architectural features. The architect Richard Wilson, also designed the main building of our current Senior School.
With extensive and secure grounds, our new home will allow for exciting developments, both in learning and in play, for the Royal High School’s youngest students.The grounds and buildings will also be developed for occasional use by students from theSenior School and Sixth Form College. Plans are already in hand to create a school allotment, and the site offers outstanding possibilities for hosting whole school events, both indoors and outside.Please visit this page from time to time to keep up with news about our new home.You can see some photos on this page and we will update these as the development progresses.
