EDITORS COMMENTS
This bird's eye view print depicts the proposed new Union Workhouse in Gateshead, County Durham, England, designed by the architectural partnership of Messrs Newcombe and Knowles of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and JH Morton of South Shields in the late 1880s. The meticulously detailed image offers a comprehensive perspective of the planned edifice, with an inset plan providing a closer look at its layout. The Union Workhouse, a vital institution during the Victorian era, was established to provide shelter, food, and employment for the destitute, the elderly, and the infirm. The design reflects the prevailing architectural trends of the time, with its imposing red-brick facade, tall chimneys, and expansive grounds. The building's layout follows the 'separate system,' which kept different classes and genders segregated. The architects, Newcombe and Knowles, were renowned for their work in the region, while JH Morton contributed his expertise in the field of architectural design. The proposed workhouse was intended to be a self-sufficient community, with areas dedicated to agriculture, industry, and education. The print's intricate detailing showcases the various features of the workhouse, including the infirmary, chapel, laundry, and workshops. This print offers a glimpse into the history of social welfare in the late 19th century, providing valuable insight into the architectural, social, and historical context of the time. The Union Workhouse at Gateshead stands as a testament to the architectural prowess of its designers and the social needs of the community during the Victorian era.
