Burton Homes

Burton Homes consists of single-storey almshouses built in a half-H plan, with the courtyard open to the road. Constructed from coursed squared rock-faced red sandstone rubble with Bath stone dressings, they 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, adorned with roses and foliage carved in the spandrels. Flanking the hall are stone-framed rectangular windows with oval frames inside, and above is a plaque that reads, "BURTON HOMES FOUNDED BY COLONEL HENRY BURTON M.D. AND MISS S.E. BURTON. ERECTED 1913." Above this plaque is a stone-framed triple window with a configuration of 4:6 + 6:4 panes, featuring an arched head in the central section. The gabled roof is topped with Jacobean finials on the kneelers and a small Bath stone decoration at the apex.

On either side of the central hall, there are six houses, each featuring a three-light mullioned window in a large gable, alongside a doorway with a timber porch. Each window light contains 4 over 6 panes, and there is a tall brick stack for each house. The two end houses on either side have wings that project forward towards the road, each with a small window in the gable end. Additionally, each house has two further windows on the rear wall. The interior details were not available at the time of resurvey.
