Show more "Trinity Hospital has been established for nearly 340 years and has been a prominent Alms House institution in the town since the 17th Century. It was set up from the Will of John Darrel, a local doctor, in 1671, to provide ‘hospitality’ to 15 ‘Poor Bachelors or Widowers of good Character, who are not less than 50 years of age’. The Charity offers generous hospitality and benefits to 15 gentlemen now as it did 340 years ago. The Hospital offers ‘hospitality’ to its residents, and is not a traditional hospital, which provides medical care. The residents of Trinity Hospital, known as ‘Brethren’ are required to be able to look after themselves. However, there is a staff presence on site, the Matron, who is the point of contact for the Brethren to assist them and to check on their welfare on a daily basis." Show lessMain Facts
