| Administrative History | The charity was established by the will of Sir John Port in 1556. Lands in Etwall, Willington, Repton, Egginton, Normanton and elsewhere were left to fund a hospital, or almshouses, at Etwall and a grammar school at Repton or Etwall. The hospital was rebuilt in 1681 and the almsmen doubled to 12, a number later increased to 16. Women were admitted in 1916. The vicar of Etwall served as Master |
