EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the imposing facade of the St Marylebone Workhouse Infirmary, located on Rackham Street in North Kensington, West London. The buildings, which opened in 1881, were designed by the renowned architectural firm of Henry Saxon Snell and Son. The infirmary was a vital part of the larger St Marylebone Union Workhouse complex, which provided housing and assistance to the poor and destitute during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The St Marylebone Workhouse Infirmary was a significant medical institution in its time, offering health care to those in need. Its opening was met with great acclaim, including a congratulatory letter from the renowned nursing pioneer, Florence Nightingale. The buildings were designed with an emphasis on hygiene and efficiency, reflecting the changing attitudes towards public health and welfare during the late 19th century. The St Marylebone Workhouse Infirmary continued to serve the community until the early 20th century, when it was replaced by Charles Hospital. Today, the site stands as a reminder of the historical importance of workhouses in providing care for the poor and vulnerable during a time when social welfare systems were still in their infancy. This photograph, taken in 1907, offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the grandeur and dignity of a bygone era.
