EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the main building of the Kincardineshire Combination Poorhouse, situated on Woodcot Brae in the picturesque coastal town of Stonehaven, north-east Scotland. Established in 1868, this imposing Victorian edifice was designed to provide shelter and support for the poor and destitute within the Kincardineshire area. The Poor Law (Scotland) Act of 1845 had mandated the creation of such institutions, which aimed to replace the outdated and often inhumane workhouses of the past. The Combination Poorhouse, also known as Woodcot Hospital later in its history, was a significant part of Scotland's social welfare system during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras. Its grand architecture, with its tall chimneys, ornate windows, and intricate stonework, belied the challenging living conditions endured by its residents. The Poorhouse provided a basic level of care and accommodation for those who were unable to support themselves, often due to age, illness, or disability. The photograph, taken in 1905, offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the historical significance of this building as a vital component of Scotland's social safety net during a time when poverty and destitution were widespread. Today, Woodcot Brae stands as a poignant reminder of the country's rich history, offering valuable insights into the lives of those who sought refuge within its walls over a century ago.
