EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment in time at the Poplar Union Schools in Brentwood, Essex, established by the Poplar Union (East London) in 1906. Located between Shenfield and Hutton, this institution aimed to provide a home and education for children in poverty. The site included cottage homes, each accommodating 30 children, as well as an infirmary, chapel, swimming pool, and other facilities. In this image, a group of boys stands in front of two of the cottage homes, their expressions hinting at a mix of curiosity and apprehension. To the right, the impressive ornate boys' dining hall building towers over the scene, a testament to the attention given to the children's welfare and comfort. The Poplar Union Schools represented a significant effort to provide residential care and education for pauper children during the Edwardian era, and this photograph offers a glimpse into their daily lives. The architecture of the buildings, with their intricate details and grand scale, further underscores the institutional nature of the site, which was designed to offer training and support to those in need.
