Ever wondered what lies behind the round window?
There has been a school at Appleby Magna since 1697. Come and see what life was like for pupils and masters from the past, in our Schoolroom, Dormitory, and Headmaster's Office. Find out if your ancestor carved his name on the panelling in the hall, and sneak a peek at some old maps from all around the area.
From a schoolboy who became one of England's first rugby players, to a boy who became one of England's most vocal polititians (and was the first ever person to be killed by a train...), this school has seen a lot of pupils come through its doors. Who will you discover?
