[2] To cover the cost of building the College, Courtenay obtained a bull to levy a charge of fourpence in the pound on all ecclesiastical revenue raised in his archbishopric.

[7][note 2] In 1549, the College estate was granted to George Brooke, Baron Cobham for the sum of £1081 18s 1d (equivalent to £656,230 in 2023).

[10] The College remained in the ownership of the Cecil family until 1697 when it was sold to Sir Robert Marsham of Mote House.

[11] The College buildings were used as a farm into the 19th century, until the expansion of Maidstone led to their demolition as the neighbouring area was developed.

Part of the site was developed in the late 19th century for the Cutbush Almshouses, a collection of grade II listed buildings.

The main building, a two-storey structure with attic, was mostly built in the 14th century and served originally as the Master's house.

The building contains a collar beam roof and a 16th-century staircase, moulded ceiling and aumbry cupboard.

[13] Poste records in his 1847 history of the College that some of the rooms retained traces of decorative wall painting.

[15][16] The ground floor room to the east of the archway was the College bakehouse where evidence existed prior to the 1845 alterations of a large bakery oven.

[13][19][20] The College site is also a scheduled monument with the protection covering the ruined gateway and buried remains of demolished buildings.
