The Fredericksburg City Council approved a special-use permit for Brompton to operate a private elementary school. The campus will be situated at Braehead Manor, a former bed and breakfast at Spotsylvania National Military Park, at 123 Lee Drive, at Lee’s Hill in Fredericksburg.
The special permit allows the Brompton School to operate out of the manor as an educational zoning group despite being in a regular residential area.
To operate with the special permit, Brompton will have to comply with several building codes for schools. The owners must make interior improvements like installing exit signs and a better heating and air conditioning system.
