14-17 Church Row - The Yorke Almshouses
A row of 4 almshouses, built for Joseph Yorke of Forthampton Court by none other than the great William Burges, 1863-4. The wellhead to the right is also by Burges. Clearly the inmates of today are more fitness conscious than their Victorian forbears. The Yorke arms are displayed in the two gabled ends, with their family crest as finials. Listed Grade II.

Wellhead at Yorke Almshouses (Forthampton)
This timber-framed structure was built for Joseph Yorke by William Burges in 1865; grade II listed in August 1985. When I first saw this building, I thought this was a lychgate for St. Mary the Virgin parish church (it is west of Yorke Almshouses).
