EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the main entrance and front driveway of the Tendring Union Workhouse, located at Tendring Heath in Essex. Designed by renowned architects George Gilbert Scott and William Bonython Moffatt, this historic building was opened in 1838 during a time when workhouses served as institutions for the provision of relief and care for the poor, the sick, and the destitute. The imposing Victorian structure, with its ornate archway, wooden fence, and intricate railings, exudes an air of both authority and compassion. A lone man, possibly the workhouse porter, can be seen in the foreground, adding a sense of human scale to the scene. The pathway leading up to the entrance, flanked by tall trees and a wrought-iron gate, invites visitors to step back in time and explore the history of this once-controversial institution. The Tendring Union Workhouse later became known as Heath Hospital, and its role in providing medical care and health services to the community continued well into the 20th century. The building's architectural beauty and historical significance make it a fascinating subject for those interested in the social, medical, and architectural history of Essex and England during the 1830s and beyond. This photograph, taken in 1914, offers a rare glimpse into the past and serves as a poignant reminder of the complex and often controversial role that workhouses played in the lives of those who sought refuge within their walls.
