I thought it was Admiral Warender and his wife. In the 1980s it was part of the Thomas Peacock school – did you board?
Regards.
Hi Claire, bet you don’t remember me lol, but I was also at Leasam House from 1984 to 1986, I also knew your sister as well.
Mt name is Tim Burgess, I was one of the first nine boy boarders at Leasam when it opened. Mr Anderson was the principle. I believe the year was 1955. I would like to hear from any of the other eight if you come across them.
Sam ford I am gathering information of Leasam house the boys, pictures, names, masters, matron, kitchen, staff, farm staff. I was there 1965-1968 any one, please help.
Built in 1798, privately owned, Lord & Lady Warender owned the house from 1906 to 1955 .East Sussex County Council bought it. Then opened for an agricultural boarding school 1956-1972.
