The Ewelme Almshouses (3 / 4)
The Ewelme Almshouses, founded in 1437 with a Grammar School attached by William de la Pole, 1st Duke and 4th Earl of Suffolk at Ewelme, Oxfordshire. The cloistered almshouses are officially called The Two Chaplains and Thirteen Poor Men of Ewelme in the County of Oxford. The thirteen almsmen have now been reduced to eight, but the building is still run as a charity by the Ewelme Trust. Ewelme School is said to be the oldest school building still in use as a state school in the United Kingdom
