Charterhouse is a public school (English boarding school for pupils aged 13–18) in Godalming, Surrey, England. Originally founded by Thomas Sutton in 1611 on the site of the old Carthusian monastery in Charterhouse Square, Smithfield, London, it educates over 800 pupils, aged 13 to 18 years. Charterhouse is one of the original nine English public schools reported upon by the Clarendon Commission in 1864 leading to its regulation by the Public Schools Act 1868.
Charterhouse charges full boarders up to £47,535 per annum (2023/2024)[5] and is among the most expensive Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC) schools in the UK.[6] It educated the British Prime Minister Lord Liverpool and has many notable alumni.
