The workhouse was a major feature in the lives of the poor, whether or not they were ever inmates themselves. This webinar can help you to explore records in The National Archives, showing what life was like inside the workhouse, and how it was viewed by those outside.
Paul Carter is The National Archives’ principal specialist in modern domestic records. He has a particular interest in poor law records.
A ‘webinar’ is an online seminar. This webinar took place on 8 July 2014.
