Browne's Hospital, Medieval almshouse in Stamford, England.
The stone building contains twelve residential units arranged around a central courtyard with a chapel and common areas for residents.
William Browne, a wool merchant, established this residence in 1485 during Edward IV's reign to house twelve poor men and two poor women.
The chapel maintains original 15th-century stained glass windows and wooden screens, representing medieval ecclesiastical craftsmanship in England.
The facility opens to visitors during summer weekends and bank holidays, with guided tours available through the curator, Mr. David Wallington.
The Common Room features original medieval cubicles with windows where residents could hear chapel services through a 1475 carved screen.
