Roald Dahl spent four years from the age of nine at St. Peter’s School, which was demolished in 1970. The site is now covered with housing.
He famously described Weston as “slightly seedy” and the school as resembling a private lunatic asylum.
He wrote 19 novels including “Matilda” in which the giant
Headmaster and ogre Matron at Chrunchem Hall are clearly based on St. Peter’s.
