Description

Trinity Court is an almshouse row built in 1607 for John Sedley. It was restored in 1842 for Thomas Robson and extended to the south in 1892 for Harry Brassey by adding two bays. The building is constructed of random galletted rubble stone and features a plain tiled roof with stacks at the rear.

It has a height of one and a half storeys, with three small gabled semi-dormers with gable parapets on the left and two larger gabled semi-dormers with double windows and gable parapets on the right. The first floor has an irregular arrangement of seven windows, while the ground floor has nine windows. The windows are iron casements set in stone mullioned surrounds.

There are single depressed pointed arched doorways located between the first and second, second and third, third and fourth, fourth and fifth windows, and at the extreme right end of the front. Additionally, there are paired doorways with depressed pointed arched surrounds located under the two right-hand gables, positioned between the fifth and sixth and seventh and eighth windows from the left. All doors are boarded, ribbed, and studded.

Above the first single door from the left and both paired doorways are square plaques featuring carved coats-of-arms. There is also a round plaque with a triangle in the center, symbolizing the Trinity, above the third single doorway from the left.
