The grand stone façade, intricate arched windows, and elegant clock tower reflect the school's longstanding tradition of academic excellence and religious heritage.
Founded in 1748, Kingswood School in Bath was originally established to provide education to the sons of Methodist ministers, embodying Wesley's belief in spiritual and academic growth. This later evolved into Kingswood Training School, a renowned institution for training educators.
Grunwell’s composition is rich in architectural detail, depicting the symmetry of the Georgian-style building and its peaceful courtyard setting. The addition of lush greenery and soft sky tones enhances the sense of tranquility and history.

Soft, Natural Palette: The gentle greens and earth tones create a timeless and serene composition.

John Chessell Buckler (1793 - 1894)
Horham Hall, Essex (1830)
Watercolour
25 x 34 cm
Signed and dated lower right; titled below.
Horham Hall was built in Thaxted, Essex by Sir John Cutte in the early sixteenth century. The original hall was a timber-framed moated manor house built circa 1470, but it was largely demolished by Cutte, who built the present house between 1510 and 1515. Cutte was under-treasurer in the households of Henry VII and Henry VIII. The mansion was built in brick in two storeys in a quadrilateral layout with a gatehouse and incorporated some elements of the former building.
The house was visited three times by Elizabeth I as the guest of Sir John Cutte. It is believed that the Tower was built for her to watch the local hunt. It was while staying at Horham in 1578 that the Queen received the envoy of the Duke of Alençon proposing marriage.
John Chessell Buckler was a British architect, the eldest son of the architect John Buckler. His work included restorations of country houses and at the University of Oxford.
Buckler received art lessons from the painter Francis Nicholson...
