The Lawrence Campe Almshouses at Friern Barnet Lane, Whetstone, London, are grade II listed buildings with Historic England.[1]
The almshouses were built around 1612 to provide accommodation for 12 poor people. They were funded by Lawrence Campe (died 1613),[2] a draper's merchant in the City of London, and the residents were given an allowance of one shilling per month.[3]
The houses are administered by Lawrence Campe's Almshouse Trust.[3] They are some of the oldest almshouses in London.[4]
