The plaque is to be found on the western elevation of a small row of dwellings now rather more prosaically addressed as 27-30 Cricklade Street. The term 'second poor' apparently refers to folk who were parishioners and who were not receiving relief from the parish. http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/Bristol_and_Somerset/2003-05/1052087753 The building to which the plaque is attached is shown here http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1113394
