Portland College is an education establishment near Ravenshead in Nottinghamshire. It is situated in 20 acres of Sherwood Forest approximately 3 miles south of the town of Mansfield. Portland College has around 270 students aged between 16 and 60. It was established in 1949.
The college was originally established as institution for the training for men who had been disabled through war injuries and for miners injured or made ill through working in that industry. The college was founded in 1949. The college's early development owed much to the energy, enthusiasm and vision of Winifred, Duchess of Portland. The Duchess had been inspired to act after regular visits to Harlow Wood Hospital near Mansfield in the 1940s. She shared a vision along with Doctor Alan Malkin an orthopaedic surgeon, to provide provision for the hope of retraining and re-employment of the patients after they had recovered and left the hospital.
