This little pair are the last surviving reminders of the Jewish orphanage which lay further up the drive. Neo-Jacobean with shaped gables and brick diaperwork, the architects were Tillott & Chamberlain. The orphanage opened in 1861 and was demolished a hundred years later. Some of its grounds survive, the remainder of the site now being occupied by Norwood Hall (currently disused) and the Hainthorpe Estate.
