South View

South View consists of two cottages that were originally built as six almshouses in 1807 for Christopher Alderson. The building has been altered in 1880 and subsequently. It is constructed of rubble with a stone slate roof and is a single storey with six cells, featuring a bay added to the left. The structure has quoins and two 20th-century part-glazed doors in chamfered ashlar surrounds, which are topped with slab cornices supported on plain brackets.

The original window openings have chamfered ashlar surrounds with hood-moulds, but they now contain casements. From left to right, there is a 20th-century window in the recent addition, a doorway, two original windows, an inserted window, two original windows, a blocked doorway, another inserted window, two original windows, and a doorway. There are stacks located between windows one and two, and between windows eight and nine.

On the right return, there is a gable plaque that reads, "These Alms-houses were appointed and endowed in the year 1807 by Christopher Alderson of Hommerton, Middlesex, Esquire. A Native of Askrigg." The almshouses were originally intended to house six poor women and were named Dale Grange almshouses after the nearby site of Fors Abbey, which became a grange of Jervaulx. The number of almshouses was reduced to three in 1880, and they have recently been converted into two cottages.
