Description
Trafford’s Almshouses are a group of almshouses, originally subdivided into six tenements, dated 1686. They are constructed with square, panelled timber framing and wattle-and-daub infill, resting on a sandstone rubble plinth. The roof is tiled, with framed bays aligned east to west, featuring rear lateral stacks. The building is single-storied with attics, and has six hipped dormer windows with three-light casement windows. Two-light casement windows are positioned beside paired doorways, which have shaped doorheads and ledged doors. Above the left-most door is an inscription reading: “This hospital founded by Thomas Trafford, Doctor in Divinity and Rector of Ye Parish was furnished and endowed according to his design and direction by Alice his relict. Ano Dmi 1686.”
