West Deyne (13+ boys)
West Deyne is a centrally located ‘town house’, just a short walk from chapel and the main school. It was built in 1859 by Reverend John Baverstock and was enlarged and considerably altered in 1932.
The house has an enclosed court for ball games and a large garden, as well as an attractive open central quad.
In their first year at school, boys are accommodated in two small dormitories. In the Lower Fifth they move into two-bed or four-bed dormitories. All Fourth Form and Lower Fifth boys have access to individual studies. In the Upper Fifth and Sixth Form, each boy has a single bedsit.
