The Haberdashers Company, who owned much of the land in New Cross and were developing it in the 1860s and 1870s, had surplus money in the Aske's educational charity. They founded a Grammar School for boys and this one for girls (on the corner of Jerningham Road and New Cross Road) in 1875. These are now combined as Haberdashers' Aske's Hatcham College.
