Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. 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.The earliest schools in Walden dated from 1423 under the control of the neighbouring monastery. The Grammar School was founded by Dame Johane Bradbury in 1522. Dame Johane Bradbury was the wife of London''s Lord Mayor Thomas Bradbury and her brother, John Leche, was the Rector of Saffron Walden. The grammar school by its constitution was for benefit of the town and three villages in its vicinity. Johane (sometimes ''Jane'') and her brother, along with the local abbot and monastery, arranged its endowment with local guilds.
