College, Tettenhall College, 1963
Comment: The founders of Tettenhall College bought
this building in 1862. Geoffrey Hancock says: "As it
happened, a gentleman's residence in Tettenhall came on the market, and
the Directors bought it for the sum of £3,700. What they had
bought was a pleasant Georgian house going back in all probability to
the first half of the eighteenth century". Together with a few
outbuildings this was the sole site of the school until in 1867 the new
buildings were opened. Thereafter it was the Headmaster's House
and remained so until recent years.
