The inscription on the almshouses in High Street reads 'These Alms Houses are the Gift of Mr. JOHN WYNN Citizen and Mercht of LONDON lately deceased who hath left a yearly stipend to every Poor of Either House to the worlds End September Anno Dom 1621.' The Merchant Adventurers arms are on the south side of the buildings and those of the Mercers' Company on the north, indicating the source of his wealth.
