Yesterday evening, we were honoured to welcome the Belgian Ambassador to the UK, His Excellency Jeroen Cooreman, to unveil a commemorative plaque at 8 New College Lane. This plaque marks the building's historic role in housing Belgian refugees during the First World War

We love the subtle nods to our founder, William of Wykeham, on the Library staircase . . . 🥰 I’m sure he would have approved of the mitres and croziers!
