EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the daily routine of morning drill at the East Harling branch of the National Institutions for Persons Requiring Care and Control (NIPRCC), located in Norfolk, England. Established in 1914, this charitable organization was privately run by the Reverend Harold Burden, who had previously overseen the Eastern Counties Inebriates Reformatory and the Guiltcross Union workhouse on the same site at Kenninghall. The photograph shows a group of boys, dressed in uniforms, lined up in formation on the parade ground. Their faces display a mix of concentration and apprehension as they prepare to begin their day's activities. The Reverend Burden, standing at the front, watches over them with a stern expression, while an assistant instructor gives instructions. The morning drill was an essential part of life at the NIPRCC, which provided housing and care for feeble-minded children and young adults. The drills helped instill discipline, order, and a sense of routine, while also providing opportunities for physical exercise and socialization. The boys were taught various skills, including farming, gardening, and domestic chores, to prepare them for independent living. The history of the East Harling site is rich and complex. It began as a workhouse in the late 1800s, providing shelter and assistance to the poor and destitute. In 1904, it became the Eastern Counties Inebriates Reformatory, where alcoholics were housed and rehabilitated. When the NIPRCC was established in 1914, the focus shifted to providing care and support for those with intellectual disabilities. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the past, offering a glimpse into the daily life of an institution that played a significant role in the care and education of vulnerable children and young adults in Norfolk during the early 20th century.
