Trinity Almshouses

Nos. 5-8 Trinity Almshouses, located on Baker Street, consist of two similar ranges, with Nos. 1-4 situated to the south of the church and Nos. 5-8 to the north. These almshouses are constructed from coursed, squared, rock-faced sandstone and feature natural slate roofs. They have a double depth plan in a restrained Tudor style. Each one-storey range includes four main windows and two shared porches, which are accessed through three Tudor arches. The arches consist of two 2-centred ones flanking a wider 4-centred arch, supported by decorative timber columns and spandrels. Inside the porches are Tudor style planked doors and porch seats. The gables are adorned with scalloped bargeboards that have a central drop over the main windows, which are 2-light mullion-and-transom casements. The roofs are fairly steeply pitched and topped with tall Tudor-style chimneys featuring paired diamond set flues. Holy Trinity Church, the Almshouses, and the Vicarage together create a harmoniously designed group. The rear elevation and interior were not inspected.
