Description

A programme of Historic England Level 2 historic building recording was carried out in 2018 in advance of the demolition of 1-7 Winnocks. The brick buildings were constructed in 1934 as additional accommodation for the residents of the adjacent almshouse built by John Winnock in 1678. The construction was funded by George Rose, a local printer. Although the almshouses retain much of their original plan form, extensions added to each in 1962 and subsequent renovations have removed most of the original internal features.<1>
