A picture hangs in the children's lounge at Park Close which gives an important link with school's the past. When Philip Reginald Egerton started his school in Bloxham he installed as his bursar his brother, Hubert Decimus Egerton, the tenth child born to Egerton's parents. Hubert purchased the very grand Park Close to be his family home and a picture, dated 1873, drawn with pen and ink, shows three of his own children playing in the garden which has changed so little over almost 150 years and still affords one of the finest views across the roof - tops towards the spire of St Mary's Church.
