EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of a cricket match taking place at the Kingston-upon-Hull Incorporation Workhouse in Hull, Yorkshire, around the year 1904. The image showcases the workhouse building in its entirety, with its imposing facade adorned with ivy, standing proudly in the background. At the heart of the photograph, the workhouse master and matron are seated on chairs, watching intently as the match unfolds. The master, dressed in a formal suit and hat, holds a cane, while the matron, wearing a long, dark dress and a white apron, looks on with a stern expression. Surrounding the central figures are members of the workhouse staff and the Board of Guardians, all dressed in smart attire, some of whom are engaged in the game, while others observe from the sidelines. The cricket team, dressed in white uniforms, are poised and focused, with one player holding a bat and another ready to bowl. The scene exudes a sense of community and camaraderie, despite the challenging circumstances of poverty and hardship that would have been prevalent in the workhouse at the time. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing insight into the lives of those who lived and worked in the Hull Incorporation Workhouse during the Edwardian era. The image serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of recreation and sport, even in the most challenging of environments, and the resilience and determination of those who endured the harsh realities of poverty and housing in Hull, Humberside during this period.
