In the early days of the school the headmaster was the "sole" master, his school being a one-story stone building (now the school's main dining room). In the nineteenth century St. Bees School began to expand thanks to the proceeds from mineral royalties, and in 1844 the headmaster moved into the newly-built south wing of the "Quad", the quadrangle of sandstone buildings which makes up the main and oldest part of the school. In 1886 a purpose built home was constructed called the "School House", part of which today serves as a senior boys' boarding house.
