Almshouses, mostly rebuilt in 1862. {1} Almshouses bequeathed by the will of Sir Joseph Banks (1726). For ten poor farmers who were poor due to loss of cattle or any other inevitable accidents, not due to drunkeness, idleness or extravagance. Widows are also admitted. In 1927 the owner of Reversby was required to provide £5 per year for each tenant of the almshouses. Tenants were expected to 'go to church, on Sundays and Christmas Day, or any Public Feasts or Rejoicings appointed by law', and must not be away from his/her room for 'above a night in a month' without prior notice. The houses were demolished in the 1980s and rebuilt in the same style, with slate roofs. {2} Ten almshouses built in 1862 from red brick and ashlar dressings and have slate roofs. A large tablet records the foundation of the original almshouses in 1728 by Joseph Banks, Esq., the MP for Revesby. The almshouses were rebuilt by J. Banks Stanhope.
