| Recipient Org: Description | There are five almshouse buildings in the City of Wells, providing 32 units of accommodation for older people in housing need. There is a mix of one bedroom flats and cottages, on two sites either side of Priest Row in the centre of the city. The earliest of the five almshouses was founded in the fifteenth century through a legacy provided from the estate of the former Bishop of Bath and Wells and Treasurer to King Henry IV, Nicholas Bubwith. Bubwith's Almshouse is located next to St Cuthbert's Churchyard and includes a chapel and Guild room. |
