Historia
The Institution was established in 1835. It provided, and continues to provide, pensions and assistance to people connected with the processing, wholesale and retail onshore fish and poultry trades in reduced circumstances. To this end it maintained almshouses at Wood Green, Middlesex from 1850 until after World War II. Part of the grounds of the almshouses were purchased in the 1890s by the Tottenham School Board. From 1869 the Institution also provided Home Pensions (i.e. pensions to those not resident in the almshouses) at £15 per annum.
