Finally got round to checking this one out after fancying it for a while. It didn't disappoint at all!
Here's some simple history, which I found online:
The school occupies what used to be the Lillesden Estate Mansion, built at the estate (south of Hawkhurst) in 1855 by the banker Edward Loyd, who moved there after marrying. The house and estate remained in the family until just after the First World War, when it was then sold and eventually became the Bedgebury Girls Public School.
The school closed around 1999 and has been abandoned ever since.
Explored with Flame and a couple of non-forum chums.
Some HDR and normal shots in this report.
Thanks for your interest as always!
