We know very little about the notebook, other than the fact it was donated to the Archive by Dorothy herself, before she passed away in 1971, and the images were created during the First World War. She was well-loved by boys at the College, and her obituary in the Brightonian Magazine states:

"Miss Fenwick had a great gift of friendship besides being one of the most amusing women one could meet."

Can you remember Miss Fenwick? Her skills in drawing were fantastic. Did she continue to draw while she worked at Brighton College?
