Hambo Posted 16 May , 2007 Share Posted 16 May , 2007 I am trawling the records of a local school in the early part of the century and there are a number of records of boys "going to the Britannia" Was it some sort of Naval College, if so does anyone know where it was and what ages it catered. If it's not a school I'm stumped Thanks Hambo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
