@hobbledehoie @polyman71 @samuelpepys There’s always a lot more detail on the website… pepysdiary.com/diary/1666/06/…

I had no idea the school had grown bit-by-bit so many times, and it shows how incremental growth can, over time, be easily forgotten – it’s harder to object to each small change – until eventually too much damage is done. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/save…

The private school in the Barbican wants to expand again, filling in space between columns under one of the blocks. clsgexpansion.com has more info and a petition against it. The “History of Continual Expansion” PDF is great, showing how the school has gradually expanded.
