Sedbergh School, Yorkshire 1930

Sporting pursuits and stunning scenery feature in this glimpse of life at Sedbergh School and the nearby town, now in Cumbria

The boys at the historic Sedbergh School keep very active in this amateur film, likely made by a former pupil. The cricket pavilion and school buildings are on view and students can be seen taking part in the annual Wilson Run. There is a poignant pause at the cloisters, a monument to those lost in WWI. In the stunning setting of the western Yorkshire Dales, this film is a wonderful insight into life at a private school in the interwar period.
