EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph captures the grandeur and rich history of Bearwood House, located in the picturesque town of Wokingham, Surrey. Once home to the prestigious Walter family of The Times newspaper, this magnificent country house has witnessed a remarkable transformation over the years. Originally serving as a military convalescent home during the First World War, Bearwood House later became a Royal Merchant Navy School in the 1920s. However, its true legacy was solidified when it transitioned into an independent boarding school in 1961 under its new name - Reddam House School. The print beautifully showcases the sprawling estate with its lush green surroundings and impressive architecture. From this vantage point, one can appreciate both the scale and elegance of Bearwood House. Its stately presence is accentuated by meticulously manicured gardens and charming courtyards. Damian Grady's expertly captured image allows us to marvel at how this historic building has seamlessly adapted to changing times while retaining its timeless charm. It serves as a testament to architectural resilience and adaptive reuse. Today, Reddam House School continues to provide exceptional education within these hallowed walls. This photograph not only celebrates Bearwood House's illustrious past but also highlights its enduring significance as an esteemed private school nestled amidst serene countryside beauty.
