Plumptre Hospital, Historic almshouse in Plumptre Square, Nottingham, England.
The two-story brick structure features symmetrical windows, a central entrance with a commemorative stone, and Georgian architectural elements throughout the building.
Founded in 1392 by John de Plumptre, the hospital received a royal license from King Richard II to support thirteen poor women and two priests.
The building represents the tradition of charitable institutions in England, where wealthy merchants established facilities to care for elderly women in need.
The structure underwent multiple renovations, with the current building dating from 1823, designed by architect Edward Staveley as a residential facility.
The inscription 'Sufficit Meruisis' in the garden means 'it is enough to serve', reflecting the charitable mission that continued for nearly 600 years.
