Nicholas Butler

In 1675 he founded two almshouses in Little Chapel Street near Palmer’s Passage for two of the most ancient couples of the best report. Old maps show Butler's AH on the south-east corner of what is now Caxton Street and Palmer Street. These almshouses were consolidated with others into the United Westminster Almshouses and re-erected in Rochester Row in 1881-2.
