Bottisham (MoC272/54)

This picture is variously described as Bottisham Village College in 1930 and in 1935. Bottisham Village college wasn’t built until 1937 and this building is obviously much older. The description points out the figure of Jenyns Charity School boy above door. Sir Roger Jenyns endowed the school at Bottisham in 1730. (see Enid Porter, Cambs Customs p.18)
