Just got a copy of "The Workhouse Cookbook" by Peter Higginbotham from the library. It looks fascinating. The fact that they had beer for breakfast, dinner and supper isn't surprising considering the quality of the water which was available then.
 
I wouldn't mind signing up for some of that.....it sure beats my Icelands: 'Cheesy Beans & sausages' and a cup of tea!
 
Dietary requirements and reasons for people not being able to support themselves thus going in to the Workhouse.
