EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a distant view of the Union Workhouse in Dursley, Gloucestershire. Designed by Mr Fulljames and erected in 1838-9, this historical building served as a place of refuge for the impoverished and destitute during the Victorian era. The image showcases the stark contrast between the grandeur of the countryside surroundings and the harsh reality of poverty and hardship faced by those residing within its walls.
During World War II, this imposing structure took on a new role as it housed evacuees fleeing from conflict. The workhouse's walls witnessed tales of resilience, struggle, and survival during one of history's darkest periods.
As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our architectural heritage and learning from our past. The intricate details of this building tell a story of societal norms, economic disparity, and human resilience that transcends generations.
Let us reflect on the significance of places like Dursley Union Workhouse in shaping our collective history and honoring those who walked through its doors seeking solace amidst turmoil.
