Transactions of the Cumberland and Westmorland Antiquarian and Archaeological Society 1999, Vol XCIX. The oldest part of the school, now known as Foundation opposite the Priory Church, was built by 1587. Thanks to an agreement with Queen's College Oxford, and the purchase of local tithes, the school prospered both financially and academically.
