Can anyone tell me which public/independent schools were founded in the 1860's?

Thanks for those. Is the list taken from a book as I have not been able to find a list with ALL the public independent schools in any of my reference books.

I abstracted the schools of the 1860s from the list of Independent Schools given in the Education Directory section of Whitaker's Almanack( standard edition) 2004. It is sure to be in earlier editions of this annual publication.

Thanks for that. I did find another list in a crossword book - which included the school I was after - Loretto founded 1862.
