A terrace of 4 houses, formerly the William Barnaby
Almshouses. 1826, rebuilt by William Steggles, on the site of
a C16 foundation. In Tudor style. White brick front with stone
quoins and dressings; red brick rear. Slate roofs with a brick
dentil cornice.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys. 8 window range, arranged 3:2:3, with the
centre breaking forward slightly under a brick dentil pediment
which has a central plaque inscribed 'Given by William Barnaby
1571 Rebuilt 1826'. The windows are all 2-light casements in
Tudor style with ornate leaded panes and arched heads to
lights, stone mullions and dripmoulds. A raised stone band
runs between 1st and ground storeys. 4 recessed doors spaced
across the front have stone dripmoulds and chamfered brick
reveals.
No.8 has 3 stone steps and No.9, 2. 4-panel doors with 2
leaves, the upper panels with applied mouldings which match
the window tracery. 2 end and 3 internal chimney-stacks with
plain rectangular shafts. The fenestration along the rear wall
is all C20 replacement and includes 2 small-paned windows with
intersecting Gothick-style tracery to the ogee heads.
These almshouses, originally intended for 8 women and 8 men,
are sold, and used as a builders' merchants warehouse from
1954 until 1978. They were restored as 4 privately-owned
houses in 1980/81.
