Full Description
Site of pre-Union parish poorhouse traced from Enclosure Maps and documents from late 18th century until 1830s.
See (S1).
Site now built over, partly by 1830s school, partly by late 19th and mid 20th century housing. (S1) states wall around site is contemporary but some of it may have been built later to screen the view of the workhouse from the Hall.
