Description
Pates Almshouses are a pair of almshouses dated 1811, as indicated in the pediment. They are constructed of ashlar with pinkish-brown brick and red brick dressings at the rear, topped with a hipped slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has three bays with five windows arranged in a 1:3:1 pattern, featuring a central pedimented section that projects forward. All windows are casement style with plain reveals and sills. The central entrance has double part-glazed doors topped with a pediment supported by corbels. There is a first-floor band, frieze, cornice, and a blocking course. A plaque in the pediment reads "Pates / 1811". At the rear, the ground floor openings have flat arches made of red rubbed brick. The interior has not been inspected. Historically, these almshouses were founded in 1574 by Richard Pate and were originally located on the High Street before being moved to this site in 1811.
