Bruce

Until July 2024, Bruce was one of Stowe’s eight boys’ Boarding Houses; located next to the Chapel and Queen’s House.

In support of one of the School’s long-standing strategic objectives, to reach 50-50 boy-girl parity, Bruce House has closed and, after a period of extensive refurbishment, we are delighted that it will reopen in September 2025 as a girls' Day and Boarding House.

This is not the first time a boys’ House has been re-assigned: in 1985 Nugent was converted from a boys’ waiting House and in 1993 Lyttelton was converted into a girls’ Boarding House.
