Ragged School Museum

Ragged School Museum

In 1877 a ragged school was set up by Dr Barnardo at 46-50 Copperfield Road, E3, in a group of three canal-side warehouses. The school closed  in 1908 when there were enough schools in the area run by the government. The buildings were then used by various industries, and then threatened with demolition. A group of local people set up the Ragged School Museum Trust and the museum opened in 1990.
