Coopers Almshouses

Thomas Sankey Cooper (1818-1898) who practised as a surgeon, was twice mayor (1866 and 1875), and in later life served as Chairman of the Commissioners of Income Tax. The second name on the stone, H Cooper, was his younger brother Henry. The almshouses consisted of six single storey cottages built in an ornate Dutch style. They narrowly avoided serious damage in World War II air raids, apart from loss of the entrance gate.
