Imperial Service College
The Imperial Service College (ISC) was an English independent school based in Windsor.
In 1942, it merged with Haileybury to form Haileybury and Imperial Service College. ISC had itself previously absorbed the United Services College.
During the 1950s part of the site was the home of The Royal Horse Guards Light Aid Detachment Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (LAD REME RHG) while Kipling Memorial Building (1939) was used by the local corporation (RBNW).
The area is now being redeveloped as offices.
