Image description

Intended to train the Company's military cadets, Addiscombe (in Surrey) was opened in 1809. It cost about £300 to put a young gentleman through the course. As usual with 19th century educational institutions, the pupils led a tough existence, which might have helped them to cope with the hard career path they had chosen in India.
