Description
13 panels of the panelling formerly in the chapel, incised with names, which read from left to right consecutively, except that the panel for 1912-15 entrants, which concluded with the names of 3 under the heading STAFF OF MASTERS and 1 under the heading STAFF OF SCHOOL SERVANTS, was at the extreme left. The 13th panel has the heading DESIDERATIS ADNUMERENTUR, and shows 18 names arranged similarly to the other panels but without dates. Some of these names are shown against units from the Dominions, and it is possible that information from them was late in being collated, hence the difference between the original number proposed and the final tally.

History
The Chapel was designed to be in keeping with the school surroundings, and incorporated stained glass windows of the former Library. Some of these were destroyed in WW2 by enemy action and replaced. Sources vary on numbers, so presumably some were added: see note above. 1968 Chapel was demolished on the school's move to Barnes.
