Description
John Burrill Homes is a group of three blocks of almshouses built between 1925 and 1931 by the architects Ward and Leckenby. The buildings are constructed of orange brick in English bond, featuring stone dressings and a moulded stone eaves cornice. The roof is tiled and coped with stone, and includes brick and stone chimney stacks. Each house has an L-shaped plan with a central entrance and a small rear service wing.
The exterior consists of a single-storey, six-bay range. The doorways are quoined and have shallow arched heads with moulded spandrels beneath stepped lintels. The windows are leaded casements with three mullioned lights. On the right end, there is a canted bay with a parapet, while the left end features a single-light window in a splayed surround. The gable end facing the street has a five-light canted bay window and a vertical slit light in a stone surround at the gable apex. The interiors have not been inspected.
