English: Old Bablake and Bond's Hospital, Hill Street Listed buildings, Old Bablake grade I and Bond's Grade II*.
A plaque beside the gateway describes the building:
"The college of Bablake and Bond's hospital
The site of collegiate buildings of the church of St John since 1344. The 14th century priests' quarters were remodelled in 1560 as a boys hospital and later as a boys school which remained until 1890 when Bablake School was transferred to Coundon Road. Bonds or Bablake Hospital was endowed by the will of Thomas Bond in 1506. Much restored in 1832-43 it still provides a home for the elderly." As do nearby more modern buildings.
Hill Street is now a bit of a backwater, cut off by the ring road.
