1920

Shown in its original position in what was then ‘The Masters Garden’, the edge of Big School is on the right and the Chapel on the left. The memorial was paid for by the

O.S.E. and parents following an appeal launched in 1917 by the Warden and Governors of the School in line with a ‘national suggestion’ by the Prince of Wales. The process

for raising the cash for all the various memorials proved difficult and long-winded with many feeling that the plans too ambitious and expensive. This Calvary has been

moved at least twice since this photograph was taken to allow for building work and new landscaping but has always been roughly in the same area.
