Tonbridge Daily Snippet

In 1903 a community of nuns expelled from France opened a Convent School at Shrublands, Mill Lane. The building has now been demolished. The Covent eventually moved to the mansion house of Foxbush in Hildenborough. Known as Notre Dames de Lourdes NLD, the day and boarding school for girls, eventually closed its doors in the early 70's.

If a reader has photographs, attended the school or knows anyone who did please contact me on tonbridgedaily@gmail.com or leave a comment on the blog.
