Mary Squires Almshouses, Church Path, Walthamstow
The six almshouses of Mrs Mary Squires were founded in 1795 to give shelter to six widows of local tradesmen. All tenants had to be members of the Church of England, over 50 years old and of good moral character. If accepted there were many rules governing behaviour. In return for obedience to these, the widows would be housed rent free and receive £12 per annum, coals after Christmas and a loaf each Sunday. Mrs Squires as a widow was very much concerned with the well-being of the local poor. She died in 1796 and the almshouses are virtually unchanged today.

Plaque over the Mary Squires Almshouses, Church Path, Walthamstow
The six almshouses of Mrs Mary Squires were founded in 1795 to give shelter to six widows of local tradesmen. All tenants had to be members of the Church of England, over 50 years old and of good moral character. If accepted there were many rules governing behaviour.

Mrs Squires as a widow was very much concerned with the well-being of the local poor. She died in 1796 and the almshouses are virtually unchanged today.
It is not clear from the plaque, though, if the tradesmen were decayed or their widows and clearly nobody else dare look for admittance.
