EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this evocative photograph of the Driffield Union Workhouse in East Yorkshire, England, as it appeared in 1915. The imposing building, located on Bridlington Road, stands neatly and tidily with its ornamental driveway leading up to the entrance. Two inmates can be seen taking a rest on a bench to the left of the image, adding a poignant touch to this historical snapshot. The Union Workhouse, also known as the Poor Law Institution, was established to provide relief and support for the destitute and the elderly in the community. The entrance to the workhouse is framed by tall stone pillars, adorned with urns and vases, adding an air of grandeur to the institution. The building's turrets and chimneys rise majestically against the clear blue sky, while the lush green grass and flower beds surrounding the property suggest that even those in need were entitled to some semblance of comfort and beauty in their daily lives. The driveway, leading up to the workhouse, is lined with stone and adorned with urns and vases, adding to the overall elegance of the property. The ornate details of the building, from the intricate stonework to the decorative urns and vases, speak to the care and attention that was put into the design and construction of the institution. The Driffield Union Workhouse, a testament to the history of social welfare in East Yorkshire, stands as a reminder of the past and the importance of providing for those in need. This photograph, with its intriguing details and poignant moments, invites us to reflect on the history of our communities and the compassionate institutions that have shaped them.
