The school therefore finally settled at Bradford on Avon in Wiltshire where it amalgamated with a similar prep school, Kingwell Court, whose headmaster had just left. This building, originally Frankleigh House, was early Victorian but with some surviving sections believed to be Tudor. The merged schools retained the name of The Old Ride but for a while kept their separate uniforms: red caps for The Old Ride and purple for Kingwell Court.
