Hospital of St John Baptist without the Barrs

Lichfield, United Kingdom · built 1135

The Hospital of St John Baptist without the Barrs is a building with an adjacent chapel in the city of Lichfield, Staffordshire, England. It is a Grade I listed building. The building has ancient roots, once providing accommodation to travellers outside the southern city walls who would arrive in Lichfield after the gates had closed for the night. The distinctive eight chimneys fronting St John's Street date back to the Tudor period when the hospital served as an almshouse for elderly gentlemen in the city.
