• An old Photograph from 1946

    Tuesday, 20 December 2011

    I was fascinated to see the Leconfield picture of the College Shooting Team. Two boys I recognise; Gouriet and Brian Mullin who was one of my great friends. He and I went to Sandhurst together and he stayed in the Army, passing away recently in South Africa.

  • Malcolm Jenkins (H. 1951-55) writes reading the August newsletter about Sir John Chilcot, O.B. President, prompted me to revisit an old photograph taken circa 1954, of some of the inhabitants of Hampden House, including John Chilcot. The photo was taken at the top of the bank, which was out of bounds to all but prefects’ feet, with the old tin sheds which housed Hampden at the time, in the background!

  • Chris Terleski (H.1965-71)

    Chris Terleski (H.1965-71), quoted in The Brightonian of 1971 as the "(in)famous Head of School who will be remembered by everyone - but for entirely different reasons" popped in to see us recently and had a tour of the College on a beautiful sunny August morning. He had some super stories to tell of CCF adventures, cricketing triumphs and general all round good memories of College life. Chris is currently living in France but keeps up with OB news via our monthly Pelican e-newsletter.

    I think I was the first OB to be married in the College Chapel, Saturday 30th 1961. I remember I had to spend three weekends in Bristol House to claim residential qualification. In fact our Marriage certificate gives my address as Brighton College. People think my wife Angela married a school boy! We’ve been married now for 50 years, and celebrate our Golden Wedding Anniversary this coming September.
  • Photos wanted for "Memory Lane"

    Thursday, 21 April 2011
    The Editor of The Pelican magazine is looking for photographs that show ‘real’ life at Brighton College over the decades.  The College Archive is full of the official portraits of rugby teams, school prefects, houses and even the Masters’ Common Room, but the most interesting images are those that capture the more informal moments –whether taking time out of lessons or looking in on major occasions, they preserve moments in time.

    Do you have photographs from your time at Brighton College that you’d allow to be published as part of a new section of The Pelican, entitled Memory Lane?  If so, you can either scan the photograph and email it to us with your name, House and years and a brief explanation of what’s going on in the photograph.  Alternatively, you can load the images to a disc or a memory stick and send them to the OBA Office at Brighton College.
