Foster's almshouses with the Chapel of the Three Kings of Cologne - built in 1490 – can be seen here on Colston Street. The almshouses were rebuilt in the late 19th century in Burgundian regional style copying 15th Century domestic French architecture (a distinctive roof-form punctuated by tall clustered chimneys, ornate diaper brick & tile-work and Gothic detail). Thus, the chapel is the only part of the original complex remaining.
