Residents then moved back into their homes.The refurbished Almshouses now meet the highest standards, whist maintaining their outward appearance. Each home has high quality insulation, double glazing (with patio windows overlooking the gardens), underfloor heating, fitted kitchens/cupboards and modern bathrooms (with 'wet room' shower)."
