Alex Fitch Room

Above a fireplace in a room at Harrow School a light has shone on the portrait of a young man in uniform night and day, for nearly 100 years. When 19-year-old 2nd Lieutenant Alex Fitch was killed in northern France in September 1918 his parents were determined their only son would be remembered and donated the beautiful contents of the Alex Fitch Room in his memory. This is the most poignant room at Harrow School. Located in the War Memorial Building. This beautiful room is available to hire in the school holiday period for photoshoots, exclusive dinners and meetings

The Alex Fitch Room is full of unique and historical features. Everything in the room is older than the building itself. Panelling from the Elizabethan period clads the walls and the fireplace dates from the reign of Henry V. The floor is made of decking from H.M.S. Vincent, the battleship which served during the reign of George III. The furniture to the exterior of the room is from the reign of James I, as is the main dining table.
