Glass negative showing a room at Westtown Boarding School lined with pupil's desks. Two lanterns hang from the ceiling and there are four pillars in the center of the room. Three windows line the back wall letting in sunlight. Westtown Boarding School, a coeducational Quaker boarding school, opened in 1799. The first building on the campus was designed by David Evans, a Quaker architect. Later buildings included Industrial Hall, built in 1869, and the new main building, built in 1888 after designs by Quaker Addison Hutton (1834-1916). The first diploma was awarded in 1862.
