was also master of the almshouses. Two storeys; 5 bays. Ground floor with
central arched entrance. All windows segment-headed sashes with glazing

cupola astride the gable and another 2-storeyed single bay with segment-headed
casement windows. Walled gardens back and front. Square brick piers surmounted
