This Christian almshouse cares for twenty-three residents, but its origins go back many centuries. It can trace its roots back to at least the early 1300s and possibly has older beginnings still. It was mentioned in Anthony Trollope's 'The Warden', and was based on his experiences during his stay in Salisbury.
