Beresford House Boarding School, Eastbourne
« on: Tuesday 19 May 09 07:09 UTC (UK) »
Hello,

I was wondering if anybody had any photos of the building "Beresford House Boarding School" that they could share with me.  I have tried "googling" it, but not come up with anything.
My Grandmother went there as a child whilst her parents were out in India.

Many thanks

Hello Hazel,

I thought Beresford house school still existed, but was told it was knocked down
some 20+ years ago.....and I live in Eastbourne !
You may get some joy if you contact our local newspaper, as they print loads of
old photos and may have some in their archives -

Possibly Eastbourne College Public School may be able to help, since their astro turf pitches are apparently now on the sight of Beresford House School  Wink

Hi
I understand the Beresford House girls went to Moira House, when the school closed....
so may be worth checking Moira House as well.

Hello to everyone who replyed,

Thank you all very much for helping me.  (I was away for the holiday weekend, so sorry for the delay in replying).

I will contact the Eastbourne Herald and see if they can help me as well as Moira house too.

Your comments are very much appreciated and thank you for taking the time to assist me.

Best wishes
Hazel
