1,3 and 5, West Avenue

Nos. 1, 3 and 5 West Avenue is an almshouse row built around 1912 by Frank Atkinson. The building is constructed of red brick and features hipped plain tiled roofs with two central ridge stacks. It is a single-storey structure with five bays, which include two casement windows under gauged heads in the second and fourth bays. The outer bays have recessed openings with cambered heads and stone keystones, along with an additional casement window in the rear wall of the recess. The central opening is framed by a moulded brick surround, an ashlar keystone, and a cornice band that contains another window. There are panelled doors to the left side of the porch, and a bay set back at the left end includes two more windows. A lantern with a sphere finial is positioned at the left end of the main block. Whiteley Village was established by William Whiteley of Whiteley's stores to provide for thrifty elderly people and was designed on an octagonal plan by Frank Atkinson, who collaborated with leading architects of the time.
