1881 England Census notes Cecil boarding at The Mall, the Grammar School, Hungerford, Berkshire. Age noted as 15. Occupation noted as scholar

The Grammar School was founded in 1635 when the Rector of Welford, the Rev. Thomas Sheaffe, gave half an acre of land to the town for the purpose of building a free grammar school. The Rev. Edward Meyrick was the schoolmaster at the Grammar School from 1776. He was the Curate of Chilton Foliat but was licensed to teach at the Free Grammar School in Hungerford which he did for ten years until he was appointed the Vicar of Ramsbury. He started the first of his boy's preparatory schools at the Vicarage in Ramsbury.

The grammar schools taught the classic curriculum which was highly acclaimed from the time of the Renaissance, but by the beginning of the 19th century was thought to be too limited. This led to the decline in the grammar schools. Attendance dropped, sometimes to nil and in a few instances, left the master alone, but still collecting his endowment stipend!
