Located in the War Memorial Building at Harrow School, the entire contents of the room were donated by the Fitch family in memory of their son, who died in the First World War.
All proceeds from the hire of this room go towards a bursary for a boy to attend Harrow.
The room is decorated with intricate and beautiful panelling from the Elizabethan period and the fireplace dates from the reign of Henry V. The floor is made of decking from H.M.S. Vincent the battleship, which served during the reign of George III. The furniture of the room is from the reign of James I, as is the main dining table.
Alex Fitch’s portrait hangs above the 600-year-old fireplace with the light above never being put out in respect for the fallen.
