Description
Abbott's Ladies Home is a pair of almshouses built around 1870 by F. Swindon-Barber. The buildings are constructed of coursed rubble with ashlar dressings and feature slate roofs with ashlar coped gables topped with finials. There are two tall ridge stacks, a chamfered plinth, and a first-floor band. The structure is two storeys high and has four windows. The two central gables slightly project and each has two 4-light chamfered cross mullion windows. Above these are two 3-light chamfered mullion windows with wooden transoms and ashlar hoods, all fitted with glazing bar casements. On either side of the central gables are single doorways with moulded ashlar bow-headed surrounds, leading to part glazed 6-panel doors, with narrow windows beyond. Above, there are single lancet windows with moulded heads.
