Burton Homes

Burton Homes consists of a row of single-storey almshouses built in a half-H plan, with the courtyard facing the road. Constructed from coursed squared rock-faced red sandstone rubble with Bath stone dressings, the buildings feature a red tile roof. The chimneys have been rebuilt in blue engineering brick, while the rear elevation is entirely brick. The design is reminiscent of 17th-century almshouses found in East Anglia.

At the center, there is a hall with double plank doors set beneath a three-centred arch, which is adorned with carvings of roses and foliage in the spandrels. Flanking the hall are stone-framed rectangular windows with oval frames inside, and above the entrance is a plaque that reads 'BURTON HOMES FOUNDED BY COLONEL HENRY BURTON M.D. AND MISS S.E. BURTON. ERECTED 1913'. Above this, a stone-framed triple window features a combination of 4:6 + 6:4 panes, with the central section having an arched head.

The gabled roof is decorated with Jacobean finials on the kneelers and a small Bath stone decoration at the apex. Each of the six houses on either side of the central hall has a three-light mullioned window set in a large gable, alongside a doorway with a timber porch. Each window consists of lights with 4 over 6 panes, and there is a tall brick stack for each house. The end houses on either side are slightly advanced towards the road and include a small window in the gable end. Additionally, each house has two more windows located on the rear wall. The interior details were not available at the time of resurvey.
