[4] Funds were needed for the upkeep of the hospital and, in 1400, the Pope encouraged visitors on certain days to make donations in exchange for being granted remission of their sins.

[5] After the Dissolution of the monasteries it remained independent, and attempts by William Crouch to take it into private property were defeated after the city fathers petitioned Queen Elizabeth I.

[1] The site now includes Chapel Court,[1] and continues to provide a home for over 100 of the local elderly poor and make grants to individuals and organisations in and around Bath.

The two-storey Bath stone building has a heavy ground floor arcade of round-headed arches on pillars, and retains its original window mouldings and sashes.
