Description

Harley's Almshouses is a group of six almshouses built in 1832, designed with four rooms each. The building features a symmetrical single-storey front made of coursed rubble, topped with a half hipped slate roof. It has three diagonally set red brick chimney stacks with stock brick caps. A central broad gable over Nos. 15 and 16 displays a coat of arms set in a diamond frame above a stone tablet that reads: "These Almshouses were erected and endowed by Frances Harley to the memory of her mother The Honourable Mrs Harley of Trebarried for the reception of 6 poor indigent women AD MDCCCXXXII." The windows and doors have voussoir lintels with Tudor pointed openings. There are paired casement windows featuring diamond leaded glazing, boarded shutters with 'C' shaped fastenings, and boarded doors. The gable ends are plain, and there is an extension at the rear.
