Place & story
A schoolhouse and a supporting acre
Tubbrid’s parochial schools taught about two hundred children in Samuel Lewis’s 1837 account. Lord Waterpark contributed an annual donation, while the previous holder of the title had paid for the schoolhouse and a residence for its master. That earlier patron also gave an acre of land towards the school’s support. Lewis separately listed three private schools with around 170 children. The account records support through buildings, land and continuing payments, without treating the private schools as part of the same arrangement. [2]
