The nearer brick building (dated 1906) and the corrugated iron shed are the rear end of the old tram depot, whose front and tram access was on Magdalen Street. Beyond are almshouses, in the same style as the smaller buildings on the main site of Kendall's Almshouses, so presumably part of them, although isolated by the tram depot.
