with the two towers of St John's Smith Square at the top of the picture, the Peabody Buildings to the left of College, and the Grey Coat Hospital facing College |
and now . . .
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
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: [email protected] This list was updated on 15th May 2022 
Sources we check include: 192.com, thephonebook.bt.com, Companies House, Charities Commission,
britishphonebook.com, LinkedIn, facebook, and general browser searches If your searches of these have produced no results, we may still be able to help you find an old College friend. More resources for Horseferry Road alumni:

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? Write to Peter at: [email protected] |
