Irene Pickford, of Warminster, writes:
May I appeal for information about the Ursuline Convent that was at East Street, Warminster?
The property is now known as Yard Court, previously Yard House, and before then The Mansion.
The Ursuline nuns were in residence from 1906 to 1919, during which time they opened a school for ‘boarders, day boarders and day scholars – moderate terms’.
Perhaps someone remembers their grandmother or mother talking about the nuns, the convent and the school?
Any information. memories, or photographs would be appreciated.
