HAUGHTON'S CHARITY SCHOOL Was founded by William Haughton, originally a dancing master in York, who retired to Coldbath Fields, Middlesex, where he died.

It is supported by a Government grant, the fees paid by students, and local subscriptions, which latter are most disproportionate to the requirements. The large oil painting, by Marsden, of " Paul before Agrippa," formerly hung in the Guildhall, was taken down in order to make room for Alderman Leeman's window, and presented to the committee of this institution by the Corporation.
