EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the imposing presence of The Institution in Linton, Cambridgeshire, otherwise known as the Linton Union Workhouse. Erected between 1836 and 1837 on Symonds Lane, this historic building was designed by Messrs Hallet and Newman of Middlesex. During the Victorian era, workhouses like this one served as the last resort for the destitute, the homeless, and the impoverished. The harsh living conditions were intended to deter able-bodied adults from seeking relief, while providing shelter and sustenance for the truly needy. The rural setting of Linton, with its picturesque countryside and idyllic surroundings, stands in stark contrast to the somber and austere Institution. The building's architecture, with its tall, Gothic-style chimneys and ornate details, speaks to the complex history of poverty and law in 19th century England. As you gaze upon this image from the 1920s, it's difficult not to be moved by the weight of history that rests upon these walls. The Institution, once a symbol of the social welfare system, now stands as a reminder of a time when the needs of the poor were met through a combination of charity and harsh necessity. Today, the building remains an important part of Linton's history, a testament to the past, and a reminder of the ongoing struggle against poverty and homelessness.
