Faversham Almshouses
Almshouses for six widows were founded and endowed by Thomas Mendfield in 1614. In 1721 Thomas Napleton founded and endowed houses for six men.
In 1840, Henry Wreight, a local solicitor and former Mayor of Faversham, gave a bequest which enabled the rebuilding of the almshouses on a grand scale which was complete by 1863 to provide 70 units. It is one of the largest and finest schemes of its kind in the United Kingdom.
The accommodation was modernised in 1982 at a cost of £1 million. This is the southern end.
