EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph presents the proposed design for a new Union workhouse at Hastings, Sussex, as envisioned by the renowned Victorian architect, P.H. Tree, in 1892. The serene countryside setting, dotted with fields and birds in flight, serves as a stark contrast to the imposing structure that looms in the foreground. The workhouse, a symbol of the British welfare system during the 1890s, was intended to house and provide for the poor and destitute. Tree's design, a testament to the architectural prowess of the era, showcases a grand, Gothic Revival-style building with intricate detailing and a towering chimney. The design was intended to be both functional and imposing, reflecting the social norms of the time that emphasized self-sufficiency and the importance of hard work. However, the actual building that was erected was a scaled-down version of Tree's design, reflecting the financial constraints of the Union. Despite the modifications, the workhouse remained a significant landmark in Hastings, standing as a reminder of the social and historical context of the time. The photograph, with its intriguing blend of rural beauty and architectural grandeur, offers a glimpse into the past and invites us to reflect on the complex social and historical issues of the 1890s. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a valuable addition to any collection of Victorian-era architecture or social history.
