The centre of the almshouse range seen head-on from the forecourt, with a pedimented brick centrepiece carrying a clock face, a bell turret above and a statue standing in a niche over the doorway. Long two-storey brick wings with sash windows and ivy along their base run away to either side, and plane trees frame the paved path leading to the entrance.
