Most people will be aware of almshouses – the north of Nottinghamshire has some excellent examples, but what do we really know about them? Why were they set up, and how do they differ from other housing?
Historian Robert Mee examines the origin of almshouses in the Byzantine era, their development during the Medieval period and their continuation into modern times. He will look at the 30 or 40 almshouses closest to Retford, some of which are still in use today.
