Summary edit

Description
English: Riddlesworth Hall School (detail). For a full view of the Hall see > 1707322. Riddlesworth Hall Prep School is an IAPS school catering for day girls and boys aged from 2 to 13. Lady Diana Spencer was educated at Riddlesworth Hall School. Only girls can board, with all boys being day pupils. Presently the school has 34 boys and 99 girls. An increasing number of overseas students have attended the school during the past few years studying at the school's Diana Princess of Wales International Study Centre which strives to achieve the highest standards of English Education for overseas students. The school also offers places to children with learning difficulties. The village of Riddlesworth is mentioned in Alan Davison's book 'Deserted Villages in Norfolk' as having been a small and moderately prosperous place in the 1340s. By 1584 it was tiny, consisting of manor house, church, rectory and 10 houses, and in the 1670s its size had dwindled to two houses and 15 people. Whether as a result of depopulation by the Drurys, the Lords of the Manor, is not known. The modern-day hamlet consists of Manor Farm, a handful of cottages and St Peter's church. The Hall, and attractive Georgian-style house surrounded by 30 acres of parkland, now functions as a school.
