The town of Farnham in Surrey is jam-packed with sites of historic interest. Along the Regency-style Castle Street, and overlooked by the castle which towers above the town, are eight almshouses built by Andrew Windsor Esquire in the seventeenth Century, as the commemorative plaque states, for “the habitation and relief of eight poor honest old impotent persons”. They have been beautifully maintained and offer visitors a perspective on what life was like hundreds of years ago.
