 The convent of Sisters of Our Lady of Charity of the Refuge received girls placed into their care by social services and predecessor organisations and closed in 1992 following withdrawal of referrals by Herefordshire County Council and the consequent loss of income from the on-site laundry, where the girls worked.The property stood empty and became badly vandalised until conversion to residential apartments, now renamed Frome Court.The relocated medieval Longworth Roman Catholic Chapel alongside is in the care of the Historic Chapels Trust.
