Workhouses of the North
AN ILLUSTRATED TALK

Peter Higginbotham
We’ll follow the development of the workhouse in the local area, with particular reference to the Briercliffe Rd establishment in Burnley, which later became Burnley General Hospital. We will also look at life inside the workhouse for those who were driven to enter its doors
