Administrative / biographical background

According to printed directories Netherfield National School was built in 1859 and the 1909 25-inch OS map shows it situated next to the church of St John the Baptist. The school, together with the church and parsonage, was built and endowed by the Webster family of Battle Abbey. In September 1952 the seniors were transferred to Battle CE School leaving three classes of juniors and infants in the Netherfield School. In January 1960 two infants' classes were moved into a new school building at Darvel Down with the remaining two junior classes using the old premises until Phase Two of the new school building was completed. The school is now (July 1993) situated at Darvel Down
