This site aims to record the life stories of all the former masters and pupils who are commemorated on the war memorial plaque at The Blandford School, and those who appeared on the memorial at Milton Abbas Grammar School which has now been lost.
The War Memorial at the Blandford School is very different from the Town Memorial in the Corn Exchange, reflecting the wider area from which pupils have always travelled to school in Blandford. Similarly, the War Memorial for Milton Abbas Grammar School, which closed in 1929, reflects its mixture of Boarders and Day pupils.
