Sailors' Orphan Girls' School & Home, Hampstead

The ceremony of opening a new building dedicated to this institution, took place on Friday in last week, in Church Lane, Hampstead, under the auspices of Prince Arthur.

The building which the children at present occupy is old and quite inadequate to the wants of this institution. Hence arose the necessity for the erection of the new edifice, the building of which, including the freehold land, has cost about £9,000.
