Alms house in Bunny

We went for the Sunday carvery in Bunny (as we always seem to do when staying in Nottingham) and I took a picture of the Alms house. According to the village information board the house was built in 1700 as a "school and Alms house for four poor widows". The Latin inscriptions above the door translate as "learning has no enemy except ignorance" and "no one leaves here without knowledge of arithmetic".
