CHARITIES FOR THE POOR.

In 1930 Mrs. A. G. D. Harrison built two almshouses in London Road opposite the church in memory of her father. The houses, called Rosemary Almshouses, were for poor people over 60 who had been born or were resident in Stanway. Two additional houses were built in 1933. (fn. 1)
