The Almshouses

The Almshouses are a group of four single-storey units built in 1809, although they have been altered since then. They are constructed from white painted brick on a stuccoed stone base, topped with a low-pitched hipped slate roof. The building has a rectangular plan and features a symmetrical design, with the roof extending to create an open verandah at the front and sides, supported by slender iron posts. In the center, there is a pedimented gable, which was originally dated 1809 but is now boarded up.

There are two doors beneath this gable and one door at each end, all featuring pointed arched panels with blank trefoil heads. Additionally, there are two round-headed windows on each side of the center, which have intersecting tracery in the heads but altered casements below. The building has two chimney stacks on the ridge, while the rear is roughcast and of less architectural interest. The interior has not been inspected. Historically, the pediment was inscribed with a tribute to George III, marking the 50th year of his reign.
