Hello Lynton House girls, just wondering if when any of you were at the school if you remember being a part of different groups, with different round (about 1/2" ) enameled colored pins we wore. I  was in the "Tudor" group and my pin was yellow. We met in the big house, I think maybe once a week. We sang from our little blue hymn books. My favorite hymn "Eternal Father Strong To Save."  I don't remember what else we did at the meetings.  Ah memories. I  do hope to get back over England before too long.

So good to hear from one who was Lyndon House. I do remember that cold swimming pool.....brrr. I 'm sorry, I  don't remember the names if any of my teachers, but I can still see them. One in particular was a blond lady with shoulder length hair.
I would love to hear from you. Was your father stationed there?

Hello, I  am looking for anyone familiar with Lynton House in the early 1950s. I am from the States, and my father was stationed at West Drayton RAF base. We lived in several places in and around London but lived longest in Maidenhead. I attended Lynton House School for Girls. I  loved it!  I have been back to the UK many times, and did make it back to Maidenhead. I had a little trouble finding where the school once stood. I  did recognize the brick wall, only to find the school gone.....so sad. However the gatehouse was still there. I  was so bold as to knock on the door and met the most delightful lady. When I told her I had gone to the school that use to be on that site, she invited me in and offered me tea and biscuits.  She had lived in the gatehouse for many many years.  We reminisced about a lot of things. Mind you, this visit took place back in to 90s.
I often think of my times in the UK and being  an anglophile, I  hope to return sometime.
After going on and on, (sorry) I am wondering if there is any one out there that was around at that time. It was a long time ago
