School History & Details

Shrewsbury House School, one of the oldest boys' preparatory schools in England, was founded in 1865 and recently commemorated 150 years of teaching boys. The school was named after the Wilson family's connection to the town of Shrewsbury in Shropshire and was first established by local clergyman Henry Wilson in the heart of Surbiton. The School relocated to 'Haulkerton,' a spacious Victorian 'Arts and Crafts' home situated on Ditton Hill, in 1910. The main home, now affectionately called the "Grand Lady on the Hill," was renamed Shrewsbury home.
