New school buildings at Eton College, [Berkshire], 1862. Great inconvenience having arisen from the insufficiency of school accommodation at Eton, apian has been prepared by Mr, Henry Woodyer, of new schoolrooms in accordance with the style of the other college buildings, which, as they will occupy a central position, are calculated to present a very beautiful and imposing appearance. The building will consist of two wings, in the angle of which will rise a tower, which will be seen throughout the main street of the college, and will form a pleasing object in perspective with the trees of the Long Walk and the chapel...The new building will supply thirteen additional schoolrooms for the use of the boys, at the cost of ?10,000; the college having also undertaken to rebuild Mr. Waytes house at a further expense of ?6000. The greater part of the sum required for the schools has already been subscribed by the college and masters, aided by the liberal contributions of several old Etonians. Her Majesty has also been graciously pleased to subscribe ?100, and his late Royal Highness the Prince Consort subscribed ?50. Messrs. Lawrence Brothers, of Waltham St, Lawrence, Berks, are the builders. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
