City Grammar School, Salisbury

Parliament was given erroneous information about the situation in Bradford on Avon and Trowbridge, and Salisbury obtained funds from the grammar schools in those towns, which closed.

[1] By the early 19th century, the Master's income had been supplemented by the Lectureship of St Thomas, worth £25 a year, founded by the Eyers family.

[2] In 1818, Nicholas Carlisle reported that the school was open to boys of the city on the recommendation of the Mayor, without any limitation of numbers, although at that time there were rarely more than three on the foundation.

The school was also open to other boys, and there was no fixed age of entry or leaving.

He used the Eton system of education, with Greek and Latin grammars.
