Saffron Walden Free Grammar School (or Saffron Walden Grammar School) was a school in the Essex town of Saffron Walden, which for over four hundred years educated the boys of the town and surrounding villages in a manner designed to be after the model of Eton College and Winchester. It was notable for its longevity and for some of its illustrious alumni. ==History== The earliest schools in Walden dated from 1423 under the control of the neighbouring monastery.〔Player, John ''Sketches of Saffron Walden, and its Vicinity''. Youngman, 1845〕 The Grammar School was founded by Dame Joan Bradbury in 1522. Dame Joan Bradbury was the wife of London’s Lord Mayor Thomas Bradbury (d.1510); her brother, John Leche, was the Rector of Saffron Walden. The grammar school by its constitution was for the benefit of the town and three villages in its vicinity. Joan and her brother, along with the local abbot and monastery, arranged its endowment with local guilds. They erected a school house and school room and Dame Joan "granted a rent charge for the support of a priest and to teach the children grammar after the order and use of Winchester and Eton."〔 In some histories, the school is deemed the successor of the 1423 establishment and thus has been described as having been refounded by Edward VI. The school bore the Tudor royal arms〔A. C. Edwards, ''History of Essex'', Chichester: Phillimore, 1994; p. 80〕
