Description | Repton Priory, Derbyshire |
Details |
Boys play a game with balls, and another flies a kite, in the grounds of Repton Priory, Derbyshire. A famous 'public' school for boys was founded here in 1557, and no doubt these boys are pupils there. The school is noted for sports. We are looking at the building from the south west.
