The Church House Story

St Mary’s Church, Church House and Oxfordshire CC
Church House was built in 1830 by the Revd Charles Baring as a Sunday School and was Adderbury Girls School from 1831 to 1962. When nationally the county councils became responsible for schooling, Oxfordshire County Council became owners.
In 1962 a new primary school in Adderbury, Christopher Rawlins, was built by Oxfordshire CC and Church House (together with the other school buildings in the village) became redundant.
The Church (Community) purchased the former girls’ school from Oxfordshire CC and funded the building of the flat roofed “back of house” area for Church and Community use.
