Over 60'S Club

The Over 60's Club, formerly a Quaker Meeting House, was built in 1706 for Thomas Aldam. It is constructed from rubble magnesian limestone and has a Welsh slate roof. The building is a single storey with a loft and features three bays, with an altered one-bay addition on the left that is not of special interest. The central entrance has a six-panel door set in a quoined surround, topped by a chamfered, cambered-soffit lintel, which is now beneath an inserted casement with glazing bars. There are flanking sash windows with glazing bars; the left window is a replacement for a former cross-mullioned window, as indicated by remnants of the original surround. The building has shaped kneelers and gable copings, a weather vane on the left, and a stone end stack on the right. At the rear, there is an original double-chamfered, single-light window opening on the left. The right return features a boarded hatch in the gable. Inside, there are possibly original features including a raised bench with a balustrade across the left end, a wooden screen with five sliding panels in rebated muntins, and a two-panel door with an iron latch. Warmsworth was an early Quaker centre developed by the Aldam family, who were friends of George Fox.
