ALMSHOUSES

Lea's Almshouses

Built and endowed to the city by John Wheeley Lea in 1869, these six almshouses give comfortable and homely accommodation with spacious accessible rooms. In a quiet street in the centre of Worcester, the location offers a short walk to local shopping and amenities.

Queen Elizabeth's Almshouses

Founded in 1561–2 under the guardianship of Queen Elizabeth I, the twenty almshouses just north of Worcester's city centre date to 1910 and face a tranquil garden courtyard. Neighbouring charming walks along the Pitchcroft race course, the accommodation is on a central bus route into the city's shopping centre.
