Please look for your Horseferry Road friends and colleagues in this list below.

Please let us have more news of the whereabouts of these and other Old Ws from the Horseferry Road days.
You can drop us a line at the usual address: WestminsterOxfordAlumni@gmail.com

the Peabody Buildings to the left of College, and the Grey Coat Hospital facing College

Late 2010s satellite view showing Channel 4's HQ on the site of the College - and of a few more buildings too. The Peabody Estate is clearer in this picture, but the old Methodist Chapel is replaced by the Sacred Heart RC Church and the Cardinal Hume Centre.
May 2022: Recent news is that Channel 4 may move to Birmingham. What next for the old College site?

Horseferry Road Old W's List

(Society Members and non-members)

We believe the list below to be accurate, but we welcome amendments.
Over the last year or so we have been phoning Old W's
 - where we have phone numbers or can find them online.

A date in the 'Latest Info' column shows we have good reason to believe that the alumnus/a was in the area shown in that year. If you know they have since moved, please let the Society know. If you know (or even suspect) someone is missing from the list, again, we would like to be told.


We have 360 more names that show no dates,
so it could be worthwhile asking us to check for someone not listed here.

We apologise that the list may include Old Ws who have since died,
but we have not yet been informed of the fact.


please contact us with news or corrections at:

Can you put names to the faces in this picture ?

It may seem obvious to you, but some of us came along later and need your help! 

This is just one scene from a series of films you will find made into a video on youtube. Tell us what you can about any of the children, students, tutors, or visitors, that you see in the film.

Have we just caught a glimpse of the girl your mate married later? Have you got a story about that tutor? Or another student?
