EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial photograph, taken in the late 1920s, offers a unique and poignant glimpse into the past of Edmonton, Middlesex, England. The image reveals the striking contrast between the Strand Union Workhouse, located above center, and the Edmonton Union Workhouse, situated below center. Both institutions were designed to provide relief and care for the poor and destitute, but their architectural differences underscore the evolving approach to social welfare during the early 20th century. The Strand Union Workhouse, with its imposing red-brick facade and expansive grounds, was a relic of the Victorian era. Its construction began in the late 1800s, and it served as a place of last resort for the impoverished and infirm. The Edmonton Union Workhouse, on the other hand, was a more modern and humane institution, built in the 1910s with a focus on providing better living conditions and care for its residents. The buildings in the lower right corner of the photograph are an infirmary complex, which was erected in 1910 and later used as a military hospital during World War One. The North Middlesex Hospital eventually took over the site, marking a shift towards more advanced medical care and treatment for the community. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of social welfare and healthcare in Middlesex during the early 20th century. The contrast between the old and the new, the austere and the humane, serves as a poignant reminder of the progress made in caring for the most vulnerable members of society.
