The Daubeny Almshouses with Front Boundary Walls

The Daubeny Almshouses are a pair of almshouses founded in 1810 by Charles Daubeny. They are constructed from dressed limestone and feature a hipped roof covered with Welsh slate. The building is two storeys high and has seven windows across its front. The central entrance consists of double doors from the 20th century, which have a segmental head with a keystone. On either side of the entrance are three 2-light flush mullioned casements. Above the doors is an inscription tablet that reads: NORTH BRADLEY / DAUBENY / A.1810 D / Laus DEU. There is a sill band and seven 2-light flush mullioned casements on the first floor, along with a coved cornice leading to a plain blocking course and a pediment above the central bay. The rear of the building is made of brick in English garden wall bond and has 2-light mullioned casements, along with a 20th-century two-storey wing designed in a similar style. In front of the almshouses are low dressed limestone boundary walls topped with half-round brick coping, as well as square stone gate piers with weathered cappings and a cast-iron gate.
