This summer, Brown of Sedbergh will operate a mail-order service with the option to collect clothing, if you live within a commutable distance and travel is permitted. We recognise that this experience is not as enjoyable as visiting the shop in person, but our dedicated team are very much on hand to ensure that every order is personally sized and checked.

ORDER LISTS and MEASURING GUIDE can be found by logging into the Sedbergh Prep Parents’ Information and Communication Area of the website LOGIN are to be used in conjunction with the updated uniform information on the website and a measuring guide to help you provide the staff of Brown of Sedbergh with as much information as possible, for them to process your order in time for the new school year.
