Weekend Tours
The Church School & Wilderspin Story
Join one of our FREE guided tours during Heritgae Open Days 2024 to find out why Historic England has described our building as “one of the most important schools in England“. You’ll see the unique Model School designed by Samuel Wilderspin and we’ll explain how his Infant System worked, compare it to a traditional Victorian classroom for older children, then move on to the later story of the School which will undoubtedly trigger memories of your own schooldays.
These one-hour tours start at 11am and 1.30pm and require no bookig – just turn up!
Unsuitable for very young children. There’s plenty of seating as you move through the building.
