Reedham Orphanage was founded in 1844 in Richmond, London as the Asylum for Fatherless Children by Rev Andrew Reed〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Reedham Orphanage )〕 taking children of both sexes and giving them food, shelter and education until the age of 13 and 14.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=History )〕 ==History== It quickly outgrew the Richmond premises and relocated Stoke Newington, then to Stamford Hill in 1846.〔〔 It immediately began fundraising for a new home. The funds for the site were raised by 1853. The orphanage in Purley, London was opened in 1858〔 with a capacity of 300.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Reedham, Croydon )〕 When Andrew Reed died in 1862 the asylum’s name was changed to Reedham in his honour.〔〔 The orphanage included a school for the children and a non-sectarian church which was added in 1879.〔〔 When the local railway station opened in 1911 it took the Reedham name, as did the village that grew up nearby.〔 The school was evacuated to Nottingham from July 1944 to June 1945.〔 The home was closed in 1980 and sold for redevelopment. The proceeds established the Reedham Trust.〔 The orphanage's Purley site is now occupied by Beaumont Primary School. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reedham Orphanage」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
