Background

History

There has been a school on the Belmont Campus site since 1870. The original buildings, designed by Austin & Johnson are still visible. The school takes its name from its location in the Belmont area of Durham. The place-name consists of two elements, both of them Old French words, "bel" meaning beautiful, and "mont" or hill, so the name means β€˜beautiful hill’. The present area known as Belmont takes its name from Belmont Hall, built in 1820 by Thomas Pemberton. The current school was built in the 1960s and in 2007 had a new Β£500,000 Performing Arts Block added onto the campus. This block includes a professional dance, drama and music studio along with state-of-the-art recording equipment.…
