St John's Court, Oswestry
Viewed across Roft Street. Managed by Bromford Living, St John's Court is age exclusive housing containing 19 flats built in 1981. My reference source does not define "age exclusive".
Similar accommodation usually has a 55 or 60 lower age limit for new residents.

Was there only one Edwardian Freemason in Oswestry?
Dated 1902, this inscription is on the corner of Smithfield Road and Roft Street. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4312680
The placement of the apostrophe before the S means that Freemason is singular.
A possible explanation would be if Freemason were a collective singular,
but the Shorter Oxford English Dictionary does not show any such usage.
So it appears that confusion about the use of the apostrophe is not a recent development.

Small part of a large car park in Oswestry
The Oswestry town council website states that this was formerly the site of the Oswestry Smithfield (livestock market). Now the town's major shoppers' car park with 483 spaces plus 24 disabled bays.
Low cost short-stay parking ensures continuing usage and popularity.
The nearly square car park's four sides are each about 100 metres long.
This view is from Smithfield Road. Regent Court flats are in the background.
