They are Grade II* listed by Historic England and this listing also extends to the site's chapel (which is dedicated to St Francis)[1] and to its lodges.[2] A plaque over the entrance records that the almshouses were built "for Ten poor Men and Ten poor Women by the bounty of William Hickey Esq. Who by his Will bequeathed certain Lands and houses in Richmond in Trust for Charitable purposes".[3] William Hickey,[3] who died in 1727 and is buried in an altar tomb in the churchyard of St Mary Magdalene, Richmond, left the income of several properties on Richmond Hill, including The Wick, in trust to provide pensions for six men and ten women.[5][4] In 1822 the charity's funds were boosted by a major donation by Elizabeth Doughty.[5] Twenty almshouses, designed by Lewis Vulliamy,[6] in Neo-Tudor style with high chimneys,[7] were built in 1834 from the trust's income. In 1834 the trust also built a chapel[6] and two gate lodge cottages. The property, which includes another 29 buildings behind the almshouses,[8] now consists of 49 flats and cottages,[9] a laundry and a workshop.[13] The almshouses are managed by The Richmond Charities.[10] New residents are accepted from 65 years of age.[9] Chapel of St FrancisThe chapel, which was enlarged in 1863 by Arthur Blomfield,[6] is dedicated to St Francis of Assisi. It includes a memorial tablet, dated 1874, that commemorates William Hickey. See also

According to Cloake, Hickey was a Roman Catholic (although he was buried at Richmond's Church of England parish church) and "the only one in Richmond to figure in a list of non-juror landowners in 1715". {{cite journal | title=The Houses on the Terrace, Richmond Hill | author=John Cloake | journal=Richmond History: Journal of the Richmond Local History Society | year=2011| volume=32 | pages=33-34|ISSN= 0263-0958}} 4. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=45389 | title=Richmond: Various benefactions | publisher=Centre for Metropolitan History/ British History Online | work=The Environs of London: volume 1: County of Surrey | year=1792 | accessdate=23 April 2013 | author=Daniel Lysons | pages=436–469}} 5. ^{{cite book | url=https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=Hxo7AQAAMAAJ&pg=PA327&lpg=PA327&dq=elizabeth+doughty+richmond+died&source=bl&ots=gqYLBhgk5C&sig=KIlbIB-pcJM4GV42ZKiuD_1D8Fo&hl=en&sa=X&ei=T7XdVJjJBOOU7Qb9uIDABQ&ved=0CDAQ6AEwAg#v=onepage&q=elizabeth%20doughty%20richmond%20died&f=false | title=Reports of the Commissioners Appointed in Pursuance of Acts of Parliament to Inquire Concerning Charities and Education of the Poor in England and Wales, vol. 33 | publisher=Her Majesty's Stationery Office | year=1839 | location=London | pages=637}} 6. ^1 2 {{cite book | title=The Buildings of England – London 2: South | publisher=Penguin Books | author=Bridget Cherry and Nikolaus Pevsner | year=1983 | location=London | pages=529 | isbn=0-14-0710-47-7}} 7. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.londongardensonline.org.uk/gardens-online-record.asp?ID=RIC028 | title=Hickey's Almshouses | publisher=London Parks & Gardens Trust | work=London Gardens Online | accessdate=6 February 2015}} 8. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.richmond.gov.uk/local_history_almshouses.pdf | title=The Almshouses of Richmond | publisher=London Borough of Richmond upon Thames | work=Local History Notes | pages= 2–3|accessdate=2 August 2016}} 9. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.housingcare.org/housing-care/facility-info-158755-william-hickeys-almshouses-richmond-england.aspx | title=William Hickey's Almshouses | publisher=Elderly Accommodation Counsel | date=15 March 2011 | accessdate=21 April 2013}} 10. ^1 {{cite web | url=http://www.richmondcharities.org.uk/almshouses/hickey-s-almshouses | title=Hickey's Almshouses | publisher= The Richmond Charities | accessdate=14 April 2014}} ReferencesExternal links
