EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Strand Union Workhouse in Edmonton, London, during the First World War. The image shows a group of adults and children gathered around the entrance gates, some carrying parcels and appearing deep in conversation. The Strand Union Workhouse had been repurposed to house Belgian refugees who had been displaced by the conflict in Europe. The image offers a poignant glimpse into the daily life of these refugees, many of whom had been forced to leave their homes and loved ones behind. The children, dressed in simple clothing and carrying small belongings, seem both curious and apprehensive as they approach the imposing entrance to the workhouse. The adults, with weary expressions and heavy burdens, appear to be seeking solace and support in the face of unimaginable hardships. The photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the human cost of war and the resilience of those who endure it.
