A public school in Malvern Worcestershire. During WW2 the college was requisitioned by the Admiralty October 1939 - July 1940, and the school temporarily relocated to Blenheim Palace. In 1942, its premises were again needed for governmental use, so May 1942 - July 1946, the school was housed with Harrow School.
