I have absolutely no idea what that means. And am I the only forumite who thought an establishment called Nonsuch High School must be a hoax? |

History :
Nonsuch was named after the Palace that once stood in the park in the sixteenth century. Henry VIII started building it in order to create the finest palace in the world – None Such that could be found anywhere. He built it on the village of Cuddington. Building a school in the early 20th Century in a Park with royal connections caused controversy. Warren Farm stood on some of the land. In 1935 there was an outcry about Surrey County Council’s proposal to build a school and questions about the scheme were raised in Parliament. It was thought the construction of the school would destroy the view of the trees where the Palace once stood. Eventually it was given the go-ahead and on 30 December 1936 the first turf was cut at an official ceremony. Nonsuch was to be called ‘Nonsuch County School for Girls’. When full it was going to provide a school for 490 girls. There are now 1220. |
