Queen Ethelburga's College, in York. I'm serious -- it's a real public school, with both boarders and day students. Fees cut by 40% for day students! You can bring your horse for free! It's co-ed, but the name is a winner.
Lillian Delaney's nickname was Boom-Boom, derived from a rather unfortunate fall from her horse during an national equestrian event (she bounced and hit her head twice -- once, against the barrier, and then on the ground). She had been leading in show jumping up to this final round. She lost to Zara Phillips.
