Leehurst Swan School

A plaque was unveiled in May 2014 on the former home of Horace and Katherine Farebrother to commemorate 100 years of education on the site. Leehurst Convent School opened there in May 1914, becoming La Retraite Convent School in 1953. It became a co-educational establishment when it was joined by The Swan School for boys in 1996, and was renamed Leehurst Swan School in 2007. The site is now the school administration block.
