Eglantyne Jebb 1876-1928 founder of Save The Children Fund taught in this building when it was St Peter's School

This is the second plaque to commemorate Eglantyne Jebb at this site. The first plaque, erected in 1996, was replaced after local researcher Sue Round, a writer for Marlborough News, discovered that it had been mistakenly celebrating Eglantyne Jebb's distant cousin Eglantyne Mary Jebb, for 23 years. A new plaque, omitting the spurious 'Mary', was ceremonially unveiled on Friday 7th June 2019.
