These almshouses were built in 1925-31 by the architects Ward and Leckenby. They were seven one-story brick homes, each with several rooms. In his will of 1924 John Burrill stated simply that the homes should be made for aged persons over 60. https://historicengland.org.uk/services-skills/education/educational-images/john-burrill-homes-water-end-7933
