About this Event

A series of 3 workshops Wednesdays 29 January, 5 February and 12 February.

This course looks at the history of poor relief, focusing on the old poor law system, the introduction of workhouses and the end of the workhouse system in Norfolk. Each session will include an introduction to the topic, a practical exercise and a chance to look at a range of related original documents. The sessions are:

  1. Parish poor relief
  2. The 1834 Poor Law Amendment Act and the creation and running of workhouses
  3. Life in the workhouse and the end of the workhouse system

Norfolk Archives and Heritage Development Foundation supporters can enjoy our research workshops for free. For more information and to join visit NorAH.
