Workhouses in your area
« on: March 03, 2004, 22:44 »
The Workhouse is an institution that often evokes the harsh and squalid world of Oliver Twist, but its story is also a fascinating mixture of social history, politics, economics and architecture.
    www.workhouses.org.uk is dedicated to the workhouse ? its buildings, inmates, staff and administrators, even its poets..
