Antingham and Southrepps School and Henry Wood

After many years of searching, a moment of serendipity this summer brought Diane Lea-Jones to our notice. She is the great grand daughter of Henry Wood. She was able to confirm that he had indeed been commissioned by Lord Suffield to design Antingham and Southrepps School as well as St Margarets at Thorpe Market. Diane has very kindly allowed us to publish her biography of her great grandfather a very accomplished man and you can read it here.
