Description:Almshouses built in the middle of the 17th century by Sir Martin Noell. He was a London merchant who was born in Stafford. He had these almshouses houses built on Mill Street for the poor of the town. The inhabitants were also given a small pension and a coal allowance from the Corporation. The almshouses had their own chapel, whose stained-glass windows were believed to have come from the old Castle Church. A weekly service was held by the Sub-Rector of St. Mary's Church.
