  • The Roundhay Almshouses. © by Anne Wilkinson Almshouses Have Existed for Over a Thousand Years, Providing Care for the Poor
    From Oak Leaves, Part 12, Autumn 2012 - published by Oakwood and District Historical Society [ODHS] The Roundhay Almshouses. © By Anne Wilkinson Almshouses have existed for over a thousand years, providing care for the poor and sick and originally attached to religious houses. Later, after the dissolution of the monasteries, (when it is believed that half the existing provision of hospitals and almshouses disappeared) the Elizabethan Poor Law was the first attempt at a national welfare policy.

In 1837 Stephen Nicholson of Roundhay Park conveyed land for the building of a school, six almshouses and master's and mistress's house. The long, thin site bordering the High Road leading to Wetherby stood in front of the church and close to the carriage drive leading to the Nicholson's residence, the Mansion, the group of buildings being designed by Thomas Taylor. Humphrey Repton had expressed an enthusiasm for the Gothic style for such buildings; 'if the Gothic character be introduced in any small building, there is none more appropriate than the schools, which of late, have been erected ... by individuals,
