Location of Church Estate Almshouses in London Borough of Richmond upon Thames
Church Estate Almshouses are Grade II listed[1] almshouses in Richmond, London, located on Sheen Road, near Hickey's Almshouses. Most of the buildings, which were designed by William Crawford Stow,[1] date from 1843 but the charity that built them is known to have existed in Queen Mary I's time and may have much earlier origins.[2] A further eight almshouses, in addition to the original ten, were built in 1968.[2]
The almshouses are now managed by The Richmond Charities.[3][4] New residents are accepted from 65 years of age.[4]
