Village Grammar School

In 1717 farmer John Brennard endowed and built this wonderfully proportioned Boys' Grammar School in the little village of Slaidburn in the Forest of Bowland.

Later, this beautiful village on the border of Lancashire and Yorkshire gained a Girls' Grammar School, too. Fortunate village indeed!

The fine Parish Church has an unusual three-decker pulpit: with place for the preacher above, the minister's desk in the middle, and the lowest for the Parish Clerk, who led the congregation in their 'responses'.
