The Free Grammar School, Newport, Isle of Wight, 1844. Creator: Unknown
The Free Grammar School, Newport, Isle of Wight, 1844. This ancient building is celebrated for its association with the fortunes of Charles I. during that ill-fated Sovereigns sojourn in the Isleof Wight. It is still used as a school-house, and is exteriorly built of the soft freestone found in the island, shaped into rough resemblance of bricks; but, at the angles of the building, the stones are neatly squared: parts of the stacks of chimneys shown in the engraving are built of brick. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I

The school building holds immense significance as it is closely associated with the ill-fated reign of Charles I during his time on the island.
