Abstract
ABSTRACT Drawing on archives in Bristol and Gloucester, cities in the west of England, the article traces the history of the Bristol School of Cookery (founded in 1893) and the Gloucestershire School of Cookery and Domestic Economy (founded in 1890) and the Bristol University BSc in Domestic Science, introduced in 1926 and withdrawn in 1971. It relates these developments to the technical education movement and the teaching of domestic subjects in the period, through an analysis of the intersection of status and gender. It concludes with some reflections on contemporary parallels in the creation of separate spaces for women in higher education.
