The
Haberdashers Company, who owned much of the
land in New Cross and were developing it in
the 1860s and 1870s, had surplus money in
the Aske's educational charity.
They founded grammar schools for boys and
girls in 1875. This is the building, at the
corner of New Cross Road and Jerningham Road,
to which the girls' school was moved in 1891.
The schools are now combined as Haberdashers'
Aske's Hatcham College.
