The London Charterhouse

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book explores the history of a significant London hospital and public school established in 1611 by Thomas Sutton, the wealthiest commoner of his time. It highlights the extraordinary charity he founded at the Charterhouse, which became the most lavishly endowed charity from the Reformation to the 18th century, featuring the largest almshouse in England and a prestigious school. The enduring royal connection since James I and the influence of its governors and Masters underscore its impact, as both the almshouse and school have housed and educated many distinguished individuals.
