:::I think the plural almshouses is correct as they were individual dwellings for the poor/distressed, when combined into one "hospital" (different meaning to current hospital) they became a single institution. The [http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=374149 ref from English Heritage] says "Harvey's Hospital (Almshouses)", therefore I think the current construction is correct. |

Okay, here we go. I'll jot queries below. Casliber (talk · contribs) 09:34, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- A 1663 will by Richard Harvey of Exeter established Almshouses known as Harvey's Hospital. - plural --> singular?
- I think the plural almshouses is correct as they were individual dwellings for the poor/distressed, when combined into one "hospital" (different meaning to current hospital) they became a single institution. The ref from English Heritage says "Harvey's Hospital (Almshouses)", therefore I think the current construction is correct.
