What is recorded here

This bronze commemorative plaque records: The lower story of these houses erected A.D. 1640. Repaired and the upper floor added A.D. 1848.
Pegg's Almshouses, established in 1640, provide historical insight into early modern charitable institutions designed to house and support impoverished individuals; the addition of an upper floor in 1848 reflects ongoing community efforts to adapt such facilities to changing needs over time.
