The front gate and main building of Strode's College (Sixth Form), Egham, Surrey, UK.
"Strode's College is a sixth form college located in Egham, Surrey. Its history began in 1704 when Henry Strode bequeathed £6,000 to set up a free school in his native parish of Egham. In the twentieth century Strode's became a boys' grammar school before being designated a sixth form college in 1975.[1] It currently provides the widest range of A- and AS-Level courses for 16-19 year olds in North-West Surrey and at present has a roll of some 1250 students. Results exceed national averages and the College recorded 100% passes in 30 A level subjects in 2008. The college also provides a wide range of day and evening Adult Education courses. The College traces its origins to the free school founded by Henry Strode and this School and the Almshouses were built on the same site in Egham in 1706. The original buildings were pulled down. Of their replacements, built in 1828, two ranges of almshouses remain. Listed as historic buildings, they are still in use by the College. The present main College building dates from 1915."
