You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:Farnham Grammar School 1906.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Farnham Grammar School on its last site]]
'''Farnham Grammar School''' is now called [[Farnham College]] which is located in [[Farnham]], [[Surrey]], southern [[England]].

==History==
The grammar school was created at some time before 1585 (the date of a donation being made by a Richard Searle "to the maintenance of the school in Farnham").<ref name=History>[https://www.farnham.ac.uk/TheCollege/HistoryOfFarnhamCollege.aspx History of Farnham College] -  [[Farnham College]] website</ref> The first evidence that the school was built is a record in 1585 of a yeoman in [[Farnham]] donating 20 [[shilling]]s 'to the maintenance of the school of Farnham'.<ref>((cite web| url=http://www.farnhamians.org/ofa/BriefHist.htm | title=Brief History of Farnham Grammar School | publisher=Old Farnhamians' Association | access-date=26 September 2018 ))</ref> It is, though, possible that this ancient school dated back as far as 1351 when a [[chantry]] was created at [[Farnham Castle]], but there is no documentary evidence of this.<ref name=History/>

The school benefited over the years from bequests by different people as well as the generosity of [[Bishop of Winchester|Bishops of Winchester]] who occupied [[Farnham Castle]] over the centuries.<ref name=History/>

==New building==
The school was housed in West Street, [[Farnham]] until 1906. It moved then because in the previous year, the town centre assets were sold in order to purchase and build a new school in fields to the south of the town.<ref name=History/>

==Dissolution==
In 1973, under Government education reforms, the school merged with [[Farnham Girls' Grammar School]] (now South Farnham School) to form [[Farnham College]].<ref name=History/>
