Description

Nos. 3 to 6 Chestnut Crescent is a row of almshouses built around 1929 by Maurice Webb. The buildings are constructed of red brick with plain tiled roofs, featuring centre and end ridge stacks and brick coping on the gables. The design is symmetrical with five bays arranged in a curve, labeled ABCBA. The outer and central bays have parapets, and each bay contains one three-light sash window. In the centre bay, there is an arched opening flanked by one window on either side. The entrances are recessed on either side of a dividing brick pier, with planked doors. There are two steps leading to the left entrance and three steps to the right, both equipped with iron railings. A central stone plaque on the gable is dated 1929. Chestnut Crescent was added to the original octagonal plan of Whiteley Village, with these buildings designed in a similar style. This listing is included for its group value only.
