EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the transformation of Percy House in Isleworth, Middlesex, from a school for pauper children in the late 1800s to a Military Hospital during the First World War. Established by the Brentford Union in 1883, Percy House School was located on Twickenham Road, adjacent to the Union's workhouse. The Victorian and Edwardian buildings, with their ornate railings and red-brick facades, once provided education and care for the poor and destitute children of the community. As the Great War approached, however, the needs of the nation changed. Percy House was repurposed as a Military Hospital to provide medical care for the wounded soldiers returning from the battlefields of Europe. The school's classrooms and dormitories were converted into wards, and the grounds were used to accommodate the influx of patients. The image shows the imposing front entrance of Percy House, with its grand archway and intricate stonework, standing proudly against the backdrop of the surrounding trees and railings. The scene is a poignant reminder of the historical significance of this building, which played a vital role in both the education and healthcare of the community during two pivotal periods in history: the Victorian era and the First World War. This photograph, taken in the early 1910s, offers a unique glimpse into the past, revealing the adaptability and resilience of communities during times of crisis. The image also highlights the important role that institutions like Percy House played in providing care and support to those in need, be it through education or medical treatment.
