The Hall School, 23 Crossfield Road, Hampstead, Greater London
The school room of The Hall, built in circa 1889 and in use as a girls' school at the time of this photograph. The building is still in use as a boys' preparatory school. The architect of the Hall School was Edward Robert Robson, who designed several hundred school buildings in London after the Elementary Education Act school reforms of 1870. The Bedford Lemere daybook states that this photograph was taken for 'Miss Allen Olney', and this refers to either Sara or Rita Allen-Olney, who ran a school for girls at The Hall from 1891.
