Brief description

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leathley_Almshouses

"Leathley Almshouses is a historic building in Leathley, a village in North Yorkshire, in England.

The almshouses were constructed in 1769, for Ann Hitch, with four apartments flanking a school room. In the 20th century, the school closed, and the entire building has since been used as almshouses. The building was grade II listed in 1966.[1][2]

The building is constructed of gritstone with a stone slate roof. In the centre is a two-storey two-bay block flanked by single-story four-bay wings. The central doorway has a moulded surround, a pulvinated frieze and a cornice, and it is flanked by sash windows in plain surrounds. Above it is a tablet with an inscription, and a large semicircular window with a plain surround and a sill band. The wings contain doorways with fanlights, and sash windows.[2][3] "
