128 - 142 The Street
A group of almshouses at the junction of Park Lane and The Street, named Feilding House after the lady whose legacy in 1733 led to their foundation, Lady Diana Feilding. Originally built to house "6 needy widows", they were altered in 1852 to increase the number of residents to 8 following a donation from Lady Mary Greville Howard of Ashtead Park.
(There seems to be considerable confusion surrounding the spelling of Feilding House, with Fielding House being regularly used in its place, including on the Royal Mail postcode site and various Mole Valley District Council sites. However, it would seem clear that the surname of Lady Diana was indeed Feilding, having married William Feilding in 1705 (who became MP for Castle Rising that year), son of William Feilding, 3rd Earl of Denbigh, the spelling of which would appear to be without doubt.)
