Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
John Combes's House in the churchyard of St Thomas the Martyr, Oxford, was founded by John Combes in 1702 as a charity school to educate ten poor parish boys. A stone panel set into its south wall explains this. An opportunity arose in 2007, ahead of some planned modernisation, to examine the building, record its appearance and dimensions, and study the documentary evidence for its history, its inhabitants, its different functions, and its changes over time. What emerges is the remarkable survival of an almost unaltered eighteenth-century school house, some details about its founder and the people who lived in it, and some unanswered questions. | |||
