Woodhouse-Grove School, near Leeds, for the education of the sons of Methodist Ministers, 1862. 'The new institution was opened in 1812. It has since been enlarged at a cost of £6000, and is now one of the most admirably-arranged and healthful establishments in the country...During the fifty years of its existence the Grove School has proved a great success. It has furnished a series of eminent men to every profession and almost every department of trade...At the last year's middle-class examination six candidates from the Grove School passed in the first class and eight in the second, all of them holding high rank in their class'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862.
