The Free School, founded by the will of Robert Wood, dated 23rd August 1626. Endowment, 32a. 3r. 16p. The premises, which were partly in the occupation of the master, were, at the time of the Report, of the yearly value of £60. The school was formerly conducted as a Latin school ; but in consequence of little demand for that branch of learning, it had for some years previous to the Report been carried on as a school for the instruction of the children of the inhabitants of the parish in reading, writing, and arithmetic, the children of the poorer class being taught gratuitously. -Vide 17th Report, page 795.
