EDITORS COMMENTS
The Workhouse, located in the picturesque town of Steyning in Horsham, Shoreham by Sea, Sussex, England, is a poignant reminder of the past hardships and challenges faced by the community during times of economic and social distress. This evocative image, captured by an unknown photographer, offers a glimpse into the somber history of this once-controversial institution. The Workhouse, built in 1723, was designed to provide shelter and support for the poor, the destitute, and the infirm. It was a place of last resort for those who had no other means of survival. The stark, imposing building with its high walls and barred windows was intended to discourage idleness and encourage self-reliance. Residents of the Workhouse were required to work long hours in the fields, the kitchen, or the laundry, in exchange for their keep. Conditions were harsh, with meager rations and strict rules enforced to maintain order and discipline. The Workhouse was a far cry from the warm, welcoming homes that many of its inhabitants had left behind. Despite its grim reputation, the Workhouse also served as a vital lifeline for those in need. It provided a safety net for the most vulnerable members of society, offering them a roof over their heads and the opportunity to regain their independence. Today, The Workhouse stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of the human spirit. It serves as a reminder of the challenges that our ancestors faced and the progress that we have made as a society. The image of this historic building, with its weathered walls and overgrown gardens, invites us to reflect on the past and to appreciate the present.
