EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the front facade of the Union Infirmary at Bagthorpe in Nottingham, as it appeared in the early 1900s. Designed by architect Arthur Marshall, the infirmary and accompanying workhouse were opened in 1903, providing much-needed medical care and housing for the city's impoverished population. The grand edifice, with its imposing entrance and sweeping driveway, exudes a sense of authority and institutional order. The Union Infirmary was a product of its time, reflecting the social and economic conditions of the Edwardian era. Workhouses, like this one, were established under the Poor Law Amendment Act of 1834, with the intention of providing relief to the destitute while also enforcing discipline and hard labour. However, by the late 19th century, there was growing recognition of the need for more humane and effective methods of caring for the sick and the poor. The infirmary and workhouse complex at Bagthorpe was a significant development in Nottingham's history of healthcare and social welfare. It represented a shift towards a more compassionate approach to the care of the city's most vulnerable residents. The staff, seen standing proudly outside the entrance, embody the dedication and commitment of the medical professionals who worked tirelessly to improve the lives of those in need. Today, the site of the Union Infirmary at Bagthorpe is home to Nottingham City Hospital, continuing to provide essential healthcare services to the people of Nottingham and the surrounding Midlands area. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a valuable insight into the history of healthcare and social welfare in Nottingham and beyond.
