1. Title: A Bird's Eye View of Ipswich Union Workhouse, Great Whip Street, Ipswich, Suffolk (1899) This bird's eye view plan showcases the impressive design of Ipswich Union Workhouse, situated on Great Whip Street in Ipswich, Suffolk. Designed by the architectural team of Stephen Salter, H Percy Adams, and Lister Newcombe, the workhouse opened its doors in 1899. The meticulously planned layout of the workhouse is evident in this image, revealing a well-organized and efficient institutional complex. The architects' vision for the building was to provide adequate accommodation, care, and employment opportunities for the destitute, the elderly, and the infirm within the local community. The workhouse complex was designed with a central quadrangle, surrounded by various buildings that catered to different needs. The infirmary block, located at the north end, housed the sick and infirm, while the central range accommodated the dining hall, kitchen, and administrative offices. The eastern and western ranges provided dormitories for the able-bodied inmates, and the southern range housed the laundry and workshops. The architectural style of the Ipswich Union Workhouse is characterized by its red brick exterior, steeply pitched roofs, and ornate detailing. The design was influenced by the contemporary belief in the importance of separating the able-bodied from the infirm and providing them with different living conditions and work opportunities. This bird's eye view plan offers a unique perspective on the architectural and historical significance of the Ipswich Union Workhouse, which played a crucial role in the social welfare system during the late Victorian era.
