Also in Tuthil Fields, more towards Cabbage Lane, are Alms Houses for twenty poor People, all single, that is for ten Men and ten Women, each the Allowance of 10l. a Year. And to each there are two pretty Gardens, besides a large one let out to a Gardiner by Lease, for which each Person's Share is 3s. 9d. every Quarter. These Alms Houses were the Charity of Anne Lady Dacres, the Wife of Gregory Lord Dacres, of the South. Who settled Lands, in her Life, to the Value of 100l. per Ann. for their Maintenance. In the Midst is a Chapel for the reading of Prayers twice a Day: Of these twenty Alms People the Parish of Chelsey hath the putting in of two, the Parish of Hayes as many, and this Parish of St. Margaret's the remaining sixteen.

The Keeper of this Bridewel is Mr. Reading.
