Netherhall School is located on a 35-acre site along the River Ellen that had previously formed part of the Netherhall Estate. This estate was for centuries the seat of the local Senhouse family, and of Humphrey Senhouse who built the modern harbour of Maryport and named it after his wife. A medieval pele tower survives as a relic of the mansion, to the southwest of the modern school buildings. It was built with many dressed Roman stones, presumably from Alauna Roman fort nearby.
The first new buildings on the campus were opened as a three form entry boys' school by Charles Morris, Baron Morris of Grasmere, Vice-Chancellor of Leeds University, on 13 June 1955. The adjoining three form entry girls' school opened in September 1959. The schools merged to become a single mixed comprehensive school in 1968.[ citation needed ]
