Plaque

Christ Church School - enlarged

Erection date: 1872

Inscription

Christ Church National Schools, enlarged 1872.
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

The cheerful quotation is from Proverbs 9:10 and also 1:7.

Site: Christ Church School - SW3 (3 memorials)

SW3, Christchurch Street

We'd guess that the buildings either side of this pedestrian area were designed to be symmetrical, but the one on the left of our picture has been rebuilt, larger. The left-most plaque (enlargement) is out of our picture but can be seen on the page for the school itself. The right-most plaque is for Earl Cadogan.
