Attingham was home to a pioneering Adult Education College from 1948–1976. The college offered a radical range of courses alongside more traditional options. Some classes required students to get up at 3am to listen to birdsong and sit on the roof identifying star constellations late into the night.

The Shropshire Adult Education College was an innovation, offering students the opportunity to study in the beautiful surroundings of Attingham Hall and its grounds, to people from all backgrounds and walks of life.
