This the front view facing Reigate Hill Road. The front door was rarely used during my time (1947-51)except for parents at the beginning of term. Date of this photo could be anywhere during the 1940s.

I attended from Dec. 54 to May, 55. Mr. B was Headmaster. I cannot remember which house I was in (Lions, Dragons, Unicorns) Remember Matron? A very good time, long ago. I cannot locate the school on Google earth. JDK

We have formed an association for the old boys for Hillside School, Godalming to where Hillside was moved in 1940. We have traced 45% of the 380 boys who went to Hillside but would love to hear from the Reigate pupils.

Hillside from 1956 until it closed after Mr Bannsister's death - Boarder in both the School House and then The "Tower" House. Masters included Mr Whitty (Maths), Mr Young (Latin & Greek) and Mr Levinson (French) and a very attractive second matron called Miss Donkin. Played proper Rugby over the road in a field that is now a housing estate, and happy memories of singing hymns in the Gym loud enough to blow the roof off the old building. Contemporary alumni included Christopher Hampton (Oscar winning playwright) Charrington brothers (Brewery) the Iranian brothers Sinai....

I went to Coniston school in Alma Road and which shared the playing field with Hillside, there was a back gate into it. There was an open air swimming pool in one corner.
