The school yard, with the statue of the school's founder Henry VI at its centre. The buildings behind, on the north side of the yard, are some of the oldest, erected at the time of foundation in 1440. The statue is by Francis Bird in 1719. It bears no specific likeness to the King, for example he is dressed in 18th century Garter robes.
