Life in Chalgrave

The School
In association with the Wesleyan chapel, the 19th century gault brick building off The Lane was used as a day school from at least c.1860. In 1885, Kelly's Directory described it as a Wesleyan (or British) mixed school for 85 children with a house for the master. It remained in use into the early part of the present century but was later only used as a Sunday School. The view is across what was called "the garden" Then the property of No. 4 Hockliffe Road, now the site of 1 The Lane.
