This aerial photograph captures the idyllic setting of The Hollies, the Greenwich & Deptford Union cottage homes in Sidcup, Kent, opened in 1902. The Union cottage homes were established to provide shelter and care for pauper children, keeping them away from the workhouse system. In the image, we can see the children's cottages lined up on the edge of a large green area, surrounded by lush fields and countryside. The cottages were designed to provide a rural and country environment for the children, offering them a respite from the harsh realities of poverty and urban life. At the heart of the green, there are distinct structures of a boiler house and laundry on the left and swimming baths on the right. The school, which is situated sideways in the image, is also visible. The old mansion after which the site was named can be seen at the far right of the photograph. The presence of these facilities indicates that the children received comprehensive education, health care, and training. The Hollies was an essential part of the social welfare system during the early 1900s, offering a sanctuary for children in need. The image transports us back to the 1950s, a time when the focus was on providing care and support for the most vulnerable members of society. The serene and pastoral setting of The Hollies stands in stark contrast to the workhouse system, offering a glimpse into a more compassionate and humane approach to addressing poverty and child welfare.
