Title: Delme Roundabout, Fareham [Go to resource]
Description: The Roundabout Hotel, situated on the Delme roundabout was originally St Edith's House (or Home) for Girls. It began in 1869 as an Industrial Home for Girls between the ages of 14 to 16 by Lady Larcom, becoming the Church of England Society for Homes for Waifs and Strays in 1884. It was rebuilt in 1907 as St. Edith's. There were about 20 girls here who were being trained as servants and domestics. Reference; 1. James, Alice. 1991. Our Beloved Fareham, p. 81.
