Description
Cooke’s Almshouses, also known as Nos 19-22 Pleasant Place, are a group of four houses built in 1826 and restored in the late 20th century. The buildings are constructed of brick with a tile roof and brick stacks rising from the ridge. They have two storeys and five windows on the front elevation. The upper windows are 9-pane sashes with stone sills set beneath segmental stone arches. The ground floor windows are 4-pane sashes, also set beneath segmental stone arches. A central passageway provides access, and above it is a renewed oval stone tablet displaying the name of the almshouses and the date of construction. Four entrances, each with a wooden architrave under a segmental stone head and a 20th-century panelled door, are located at the corners of the building and one to the left and right of centre. A dentilled brick cornice runs along the top of the building.
