and St Paul has Decorated portions in the
nave
 , tower and spire. The pulpit is of the 17th century.
Jeremy
  Taylor was
rector
  here at the outbreak of the Civil War. The principal institution of Uppingham is the school. It is coeval with the grammar school of
Oakham
  (1584), and had the same founder, Robert Johnson, archdeacon of Leicester. It rose in the last half of the 19th century to a place of distinction among English public schools, owing to the exertions of its headmaster (1853-77), the Rev.
Edward
 
Thring
 . A new group of school-buildings, with chapel, was erected in 1863 from the designs of G. E.
Street
 . New (Tercentenary) class-rooms were opened in 1890, and a memorial chapel, containing a statue of Edward
Thring
 , by T. Brock, R.A., was erected in 1891. The Victoria Building, containing museum, laboratory and lecture theatre, was opened in 1897. The quadrangle is by T. G. Jackson, R.A., and over the gateway is a statue of the founder, by G. J. Frampton, R.A. The school contains about 450 boys. There are general exhibitions to the universities, and also several, in which scholars of this school and
Oakham
  school have preference, at St John's, Clare,
Emmanuel
  and Sidney Sussex colleges,
Cambridge
 . The town of Uppingham has some agricultural trade.
